Writing Year 6

Add Use subordinate clauses to write complex sentences. Use passive voice where appropriate. Use expanded noun phrases to convey complicated

information concisely (e.g. The fact that it was raining meant the end of

sports day). Use a sentence structure and layout matched to requirements of text type. Use semi-colon, colon or dash to mark the boundary

between independent clauses. Use colon to introduce a list and semi colon within a

list. Use correct punctuation of bullet points. Use hyphens to avoid ambiguity. Use full range of punctuation matched to requirements of text type. Use wide range of devices to build cohesion within

and across paragraphs. Use paragraphs to signal change in time, scene, action, mood or person. Write legibly, fluently and with increasing speed.

Writing Year 5 Add phrases to make sentences more precise and detailed. Use range of sentence openers – judging the impact or effect needed. Begin to adapt sentence structure to text type. Use pronouns to avoid repetition. Indicate degrees of possibility using adverbs (e.g. perhaps, surely) or

modal verbs (e.g. might, should, will). Use the following to indicate parenthesis: Brackets, dashes and commas Use commas to clarify meaning or avoid ambiguity. Link clauses in sentences using a range of subordinating and coordi-

nating conjunctions. Use verb phrases to create subtle differences (e.g. she began to run). Consistently organize into paragraphs. Link ideas across paragraphs using adverbials of time (e.g. later),

place (e.g. nearby) and number (e.g. secondly). Write legibly, fluently and with increasing speed.

End of Year Expectations

Year 5 and 6

This booklet provides information for parents and carers on some of the end of year expectations for our children. The National Curriculum identifies these expectations as essential for children to make continued progress across each key stage. Any extra support parents can provide in helping children to achieve these is of great benefit to the child. If you have any queries regarding the content of this booklet or want support in knowing how best to help your child, please talk to your child’s teacher.

FPS wholeheartedly promotes the development of the whole child. It is important to acknowledge that alongside these national expectations we encourage families to continue to nurture their children as they al-ways have done.

Providing the sporting, social, musical and other enriching experiences beyond our school environment is crucial to their personal development and holds equal value in our school culture.
