Darwin's Dragons - Grammar Hunt
English Resource Description
In the "Darwin's Dragons - Grammar Hunt" session, students are invited to embark on an educational treasure hunt, seeking out various grammatical elements within a text. This interactive activity is designed to enhance their understanding of grammar in a fun and engaging way. Participants are provided with a list of grammatical features to look for, such as specific tenses, punctuation marks, types of sentences, or literary devices. The aim is for students to actively search through a passage, identifying and noting down examples that correspond to the items on their hunt list.
Once the hunt is complete, students are encouraged to deepen their learning by creating their own examples of the grammatical features they have found. This exercise not only reinforces their understanding of the grammar rules but also allows them to apply their knowledge creatively. By writing their own sentences or passages, they demonstrate their ability to use grammar effectively. The "Grammar Hunt" is a practical and hands-on approach to grammar, tailored to engage KS2 students and enhance their linguistic skills in a manner that is both educational and enjoyable.
