Grammar and Punctuation

A comprehensive programme for teaching grammar and punctuation while also developing wider literacy skills.

Grammar and Punctuation

Comprising six pupil books and six accompanying Teacher’s Guides, one for each primary school year, this comprehensive scheme supports a mastery approach to the teaching of grammar and punctuation. Through structured lessons, stimulating Focus texts and engaging practice activities, pupils not only learn the terminology and correct usage of grammar and  punctuation, but also build up the skills, knowledge and confidence to apply them successfully in their own writing.

Why choose Grammar and Punctuation?

Based on the popular pedagogical model ‘Teach, practise, apply and assess’, Grammar and Punctuation provides you with everything you need to teach pupils the art of writing.

Teach - Each lesson plan includes detailed guidance on how to teach each learning point in context using the Focus text  provided, as well as suggestions for how to extend the lesson for more advanced learners.

Practise - Teaching notes are supported by a corresponding page in the pupil books that feature two sets of tailored practice questions and a short writing task.

Apply - The teaching notes are full of ideas for fun activities where pupils can apply their learning in independent writing and speech.

Assess - A range of formal and informal assessment resources are provided, including dictation tasks, regular revision pages and an end-of-year summative test.

Grammar and Punctuation Pupil Books

The Grammar and Punctuation Pupil Books link directly to the lessons in the teacher’s guides, providing high-quality, pick-up-and-go practice materials to consolidate learning and help you identify any gaps in understanding.

Suitable for use either independently or alongside the accompanying teacher’s guides, Books 2 to 6 each comprise 30 single-page lessons for pupils in Years 2 to 6, while Book 1 features 15 double-page lessons aimed at children in Year 1.

Answers to all the questions in the Pupil Books, along with a selection of supporting Grammar and Punctuation resources, are available to download for free from the Schofield & Sims website. An enlarged version of every Focus text is also available online.
