Description

Play this to develop children’s understanding of clauses and to encourage children to vary the number of clauses they include within their sentences. I have tried so many approaches to teaching this, and I have had the most success with this one.

Assessment focus
I can understand the terms ‘clause’ and ‘conjunction’.
I can write sentences with one or more clauses.
I can write sentences with many clauses, without confusing the reader.

Here you will find three versions of the engaging dice activity ‘Clauses, clauses, clauses’.

In its simplest form, children write one or two clause sentences, using a limited number of conjunctions. Other versions go up to six clauses – very tricky!

I have also included an extra version (my favourite activity for teaching clauses, conjunctions and multi-clauses sentences) called ‘Clauses, clauses, clauses – scavenger hunt version’. This activity promotes lots of talk around word classes and building multi-clause sentences.

I recommend playing this a few times across the school year, as these skills need revisiting many times to build confidence.

I hope your class find these activities as useful as mine did. Good luck!
