29. Session 6Mastery focus Distinguish between the language of speech and writingRecognise vocabulary and structures for formal speech and writing, including subjunctive formsUse semi-colons to mark boundaries between independent clauses

30. Semi-colons‘It was really only a little linnet singing outside his window, but it was so long since he had heard a bird…’‘It was really only a little linnet singing outside his window; it was so long since he had heard a bird…’‘North wind ceased roaring, and a delicious perfume came to him from the open casement’.‘North wind ceased roaring; a delicious perfume came to him from the open casement’.

31. Modelling a persuasive letterLive model writing a letter in role as the giant to Spring and how to apply formal language features.

32. Your taskWrite a letter to Spring to persuade her to pay a visit to the garden in role as the giant. Use sentences linked with a semi-colon. Continue to use a formal style and choose appropriate language. Challenge: Write Spring’s reply to the giant to explain why she hasn’t visited yet – apply the formal language.

38. Session 8 Mastery focus Use semi-colons to mark boundaries between independent clauses

39. How does the giant change through the story?When he arrived he saw the children playing in the garden.‘What are you doing here?’ he cried in a very gruff voice, and the children ran away. ‘My own garden is my own garden,’ said the Giant; ‘anyone can understand that, and I will allow nobody to play in it but myself.’ - page 6And the giant’s heart melted as he looked out. ‘How selfish I have been!’ he said; ‘now I know why the Spring would not come here. I will put that poor little boy on the top of the tree, and then I will knock down the wall, and my garden shall be the children’s playground for ever and ever.’ He really was very sorry for what he had done. - page 19
