This week I would like you to write a sentence containing each word.  Include as many of the following that you can:

• Can you use commas, full stops and capital letters correctly? 
• Can you use some direct speech in your sentences including different words for ‘said’? 
• Can you use a relative pronoun such as: that, which, who, whom and where?
• Can you use an expanded noun phrase or a model verb to show possibility?
• Can you use parenthesis – brackets, commas or dashes to show additional information?
