UNIT 1: Week 1 – 2 LEARNING AIMS: After learners have completed these lessons, they should be able to:         

Use spelling rules based on word visualisation and basic rules of double consonant spelling patterns. Understand the use of silent consonants. Understand the pronunciation of silent consonants within words. Understand abbreviations and the rules that accompany them, including contractions, initialisms and syllabic abbreviation. Identify three different types of sentences: simple sentences, complex sentences and compound-complex sentences. Recall different word types such as nouns, adjectives and pronouns. Use concord to determine whether the different parts of the sentences agree with each other. Use the simple tenses: simple past, simple present and simple future. Look at the context (surrounding text that gives you a general idea) to identify difficult words or words that you might be unsure of.

These lessons will recover some of the topics learners have worked on in previous grades as well as introduce relatively new topics. LESSON 1 1.1
