To understand and use parenthesis.

Grammar Focus: Parenthesis

At school, we begun looking at using

parenthesis in our writing.

Parenthesis is a word, phrase, or

clause inserted into a sentence to add

extra information. Commas, dashes

or brackets may be used. When a

parenthesis is removed, the sentence

still makes sense on its own.

Work through this BBC bitesize

parenthesis lesson.

buds and paint. You will find some examples of pictures created using this technique in the resources folder with the PowerPoint.

We hope you got on well with the tasks you completed last week. Thank you for all the super work you have been sending
