I'm trying to teach my dd in y2 the rules of sentences and commas. It hasn't been roughed on and her homework is dull, basically they are to find words for the given phonetic sounds that week and write a scentance. Dd is finding it very dull and boring. They have not yet covered any complex writing so far and dd is very read, was begging to be primed for this stuff at end of y1 but the class teacher in y2 seems to be going over all the learning has already done at end of reception and beginning of y1 and we are both growing a bit despondent and frustrated.
Dds learning is fairly swift, but im failing to get her to grasp scentance s, mainly because I'm not terribly confident my self that what im telling her is correct.
Can anyone recommend any free online resources that we can look at together. Specifically she is struggling with this kind of scentance where you use two commas...ie.
My daughter, who is six, is learning how to write.
So there is additional information, that with out, the first and last part of the scentance would make spence if the additional information was missing. I'm over complicating it for her and she is adding commas all over the place in an an attempt to master it.
I get so frustrated as her learning capacityfar out weighs my knowledge base
