Lesson details
Key learning points
- A viewpoint is how you see or feel about something.
- Viewpoint fronted adverbials are sentence starters that share the writer’s view on something.
- All fronted adverbials start with capital letters and have a comma after.
- This section of the report contains interesting facts about Florence Nightingale's life.
- Sentences should be said aloud before writing to ensure they make sense and read back once written to check for errors.
Common misconception
Pupils may use viewpoint fronted adverbials inaccurately by selecting the wrong intensity. For example, using 'shockingly' before a piece of information that isn't shocking.
Teach children to accurately guage the intensity of a statement or fact and then choose the right viewpoint fronted adverbial to match. You could turn this into a game they play in pairs.
