    The key takeaways are about understanding how texts are structured and organised through features like paragraphs, sentences, word order and connectives.

    Structure and organisation can be used through features like paragraph length, sentence length and type, word order and placement of key ideas, openings and endings, and punctuation.

    Examples of connectives given are 'and', 'because', and 'when'. Connectives are used to link different parts of writing together.

    Reading - Comprehension

    Structure and Organisation


    Understand how texts are structured and organised
    Recognise the use and effects of paragraphs, sentences and
    word order
    Recognise connectives

    Ways of Structuring and Organising Texts


    When you are reading texts, there are several ways that
    you might look at structure and organisation, for example:
    Paragraphs Are they short or long? What effect does
    this have?

    Key Point
    Structure and
    organisation can refer
    to many features of
    a text.

    Sentences and word order What types of sentences are


    used? Where in the sentence are the key ideas? What
    effect does this have?
    Connectives How do they make the meaning flow
    more easily? How do they link different parts of the
    writing together?
    Openings and endings What effect are they trying
    to create?
    Punctuation How does it divide the text? What effects
    does it create?

    Paragraphs, Sentences and Word Order


    Different paragraph lengths can have different effects. For
    example, short paragraphs can be used to shock or surprise
    the reader. Long paragraphs can be used to add extra
    descriptive detail or to build up tension.
    Different sentence lengths can also have different effects.
    As with paragraphs, shortness can be used to create shock
    or surprise and length can add detail. Where the main idea
    is placed in a sentence can also change its importance.

    Example
    1. Cabbage is the greatest food on Earth.
    2. The greatest food on Earth is cabbage.
    12

    The subject of the sentence (cabbage) is


    given straight away.
    Tension is built up by changing the word order.

    Reading - Comprehension

    Connectives

    Re vise

    Connectives link the different parts of writing together and


    help it to flow in ways that suit the style and meaning.
    Examples of connectives are: and, because, when.

    Example
    The boy and his parents went to the cinema. When
    they got there, it was full.

    Key Point
    Connectives can
    be used within a
    sentence, between
    sentences or between
    paragraphs.

    Openings and Endings


    The opening of a piece of writing is always important
    because it has to get the attention of the reader or make
    clear what the purpose of the writing is.
    The ending of a piece of writing is important as it is the last
    chance for a writer to make an impression on the reader, so
    they may include their most important ideas at the end.

    Punctuation
    Punctuation is important in structuring writing because it
    makes the meaning clear.

    Example
    1. Lets eat Grandma!

    There is no comma so the


    sentence is suggesting that
    we eat Grandma!

    2. Lets eat, Grandma!


    The comma makes it clear
    that the writer is asking
    Grandma to join him or her
    for a meal.

    Why is the ending of a piece of writing important?
    Why is punctuation important in structuring writing?

    Homophone s
    Understand homophones
    Recognise some of the more commonly confused homophones

    What are Homophones?

    Key Point

    Homophones are words that sound similar but have


    different meanings and spellings. For example: 'aye', 'eye'
    and 'I'.
    It is important to know which spelling or word to choose
    because the meaning of a sentence can change completely
    if an incorrect spelling is used.

    Example
    'Can I have four candles?'
    Sounds the same as

    Using the wrong


    spelling of a word can
    completely change
    the meaning of what
    you're trying to say.

    Can I
    have four
    candles?
    Fork
    handles?

    'Can I have fork handles?'


    but the meaning is totally different!

    Commonly Confused Homophones


    Their, There and Theyre
    Their = belonging to them. Example It was their home.
    (the home belongs to them)
    There = in that direction. Example The house was over
    there. (the house was in that direction)
    Theyre = they are. Example Theyre in the house.
    (they are in the house)
    Weather and Whether
    Weather = the state of the atmosphere.
    Example The weather is cold.
    Whether = can be used to express choices.
    Example I do not know whether to go to New York
    or Berlin for my holiday.
    34

    Tip
    You can remember
    'There' by
    remembering that
    it is one of a group
    of words linked to
    directions which
    contain 'here'
    'Where', 'Here' and
    'There'.

    Writing - Transcription and Spelling


    Are and Our

    Re vise

    These two words are not always confused but in many


    areas they are pronounced similarly.
    Are = a form of the verb 'to be'. Example He is young/
    We are young.
    Our = belonging to us. Example That is our house.
    To, Too and Two
    To = can express movement in the direction of
    something. Example I am going to the shops.

    Key Point
    'Our' can also be
    confused with 'hour'.
    'Hour' is used to talk
    about time.

    To = can go before the infinitive (the main root form) of


    a verb. Example I am going to help.
    Too = used with amounts or quantities. Example He
    did too little revision and much too late.
    Too = can mean 'as well'. Example Can I come too?
    Two = the number 2. Example I ate
    te two cakes.
    Youre and Your
    Youre = short for 'You are'.
    Example Youre going on holiday.
    Your = belonging to you.
    Example Is that your pencil case?
    It's and Its
    Its = it is (or sometimes 'it was').
    Example Its my party!
    Its = belonging to 'it'. Example The
    h cat licked
    l k d its paws.

    Quick Test
    In each of these five statements, identify the correct
    homophone:
    1.
    2.
    3.
    4.
    5.

    Youre/Your really annoying me.


    Its/Its my birthday.

    They can come two/to/too.
    There/Their exam results were really good.
