Hello Primary 3, I hope you all had a lovely weekend in the sunshine!
Details of your homework for this week can be found below.
Literacy
This week in grammar we will be identifying where and when to use speech marks.
Using inverted commas
When you are writing, inverted commas or speech marks go before and after direct speech, surrounding what was said.
For example:
“I’m hungry,” she complained.
If another character replies, use another set of inverted commas.
For example:
“What’s for tea?” she asked. “Delicious ants!” her mum replied.
Punctuation, such as question marks, full stops and exclamation marks go inside the speech marks.
