C) Commands and exclamation marks

Today, we will be looking at commands and exclamations. A command is a sentence that tells someone what to do. It usually starts with a verb, which describes an action. Sometimes we call them 'bossy' verbs because they tell people what to do. 

Can you use a bossy word to make a command?

You could say:

Turn around.

Pick up that book.

Turn over the page.

Jump up and down.

Use the bossy word mat below, to think of as many command sentences as you can.

You could play a game of Simon Says using your bossy words!

 

Before you do your writing activity below, have a look at the 'exclamation marks' powerpoint with your grown up.

 

 

Writing Activity

Now I would like you to look at, 'powerpoint exclamations and commands' below. You will need to write some of the activities in your yellow book but some are just to talk about.

Please remember to use a capital letter at the beginning and a full stop or exclamation mark at the end. Remember to keep your handwriting as neat as you can. Only use capital letters at the start of the sentence or  for names.E

I've chosen a story that I wanted to read to you. It wasn't the one I really wanted to read to you as all of my special winter books are in school but I've found Jack Frost which is a very wintery story! Did you see any frost today? Sometimes the windows on my car get very frosty before I leave for school in the morning and I have to use de-icer before I set off.
