Brackets for Parenthesis

Brackets for Parenthesis

Year 5

This comprehensive pack helps children master the use of brackets for parenthesis to add extra information clearly and effectively. The PowerPoint explains what parenthesis is, when to use brackets and how to check that sentences still make sense without the added information. It includes examples, misconception checks and varied application tasks. The accompanying activity sheet encourages children to rewrite sentences with brackets, explore different purposes (such as including dates) and create their own examples. A great resource for deepening understanding of punctuation and improving sentence construction.
