Good morning Class 4!

I hope you are all well and enjoyed the final part of The Tempest yesterday! If you didn’t get a chance to watch it yesterday, go to yesterday’s English blog to find the link!

Today we are looking at inverted commas (sometimes called speech marks)! In school you were all getting so good at using inverted commas effectively but let’s have a little reminder to make sure we haven’t forgotten…

Speech marks are also known as inverted commas or quotation marks. They are used at the beginning and end of speech to show it is being spoken.
For example: “What beautiful weather we are having!” exclaimed Miss Lee.

Have a look at this short clip to remind you of the rules for using inverted commas…

You can choose whether to write your answers in your yellow Home Learning Book or on the blog!

Extension…

Below are imagined conversations that take place between characters in Act 4. Re write each conversation adding in speech marks to show when the characters are talking. Don’t forget to include punctuation inside the inverted commas!

    9. Trinculo and Stephano looked on in horror,”What is this? What is happening?”

    Extension:
    Miranda, Ferdinan and Prospero
    “Your work is done,” said Prospero to Ferdinand. “You have impressed both me and my daughter with your strength and determination.”
    “Thank you, kind sir.” said Ferdinand, sitting down at last to rest his tired arms and legs. He looked at Miranda with shining eyes and she gazed back.
    “I love you so,” he said happily.
    “I love you too,” siad Miranda feeling the happiest she had ever been.

    Trinculo, Stephano and Caliban
    “Where is this master you talk of?” asked Stephano. “We have been walking for ages and I am tired.”
    “We will be there soon,” said Caliban. All three were tired, grumpy and hungry. It felt as if they had been walking for days, although it had in fact been less than an our. Trinculo suddenly stopped,
