Way to Work (Means)

1. Review the last lessons.

2. Let the children take sentences (see separate sheet) out of a box to say
whether they are statements, questions, instructions / commands, or
exclamations.

3. Discuss the punctuation required at the end of each kind of sentence.

4. Introduce a conditional sentence.

E.g. If I pass my exams, I may go to university.

If we obey our parents, the Bible says that we will be blessed.

5. Talk about formal language used for a variety of purposes. Let the children
simplify the sentences.

E.g. You are requested to refrain from walking on the grass.
Trespassing is forbidden.

The proprietor accepts no responsibility for stolen property.
Parking is prohibited.

6. Let the children attempt the worksheet.
