A PowerPoint guide to using commas to separate clauses. Guided by the character 'Dr Grammar', children look at how to use commas to mark a subordinate clause in a sentence. The slideshow also covers the use of commas before conjunctions.

This resource would make a great lesson starter! It includes several examples for children to try out on their own or in talking partners.

Suitable for Y3, Y4, Y5 and Y6.
