  • We are learning to understand past, present and future tenses and their impact on meaning in a sentence, e.g. informative texts are usually written in present tense.
  • We are learning to recognise that capital letters signal proper nouns and commas are used to separate items in lists.
  • We are learning to demonstrate a range of feelings and positions by building vocabulary (including technical words) to express judgements about characters and events using modal verbs and adverbs.
  • We are learning to demonstrate a range of feelings and positions by building vocabulary to express judgements about characters and events using modal verbs and adverbs.
  • We are learning to recognise how texts can be created for similar purposes but different audiences, e.g. different language choices for children and adults.
  • We are learning to identify the point of view in a text and suggest alternative points of view.
