Y5 Punctuation & Effects I

commerce are placed after the closing bracket when it comes at the end of a clause.

So this means you only have a comma after

brackets when they would naturally be one anyway.

So again, I think about

moving on to brackets and commerce.

So commerce are placed after the closing bracket when it comes at the end of a clause.

So this means you only have a common after

brackets when they would naturally be one anyway.

So think back to what we just said that we can take the bracketed phrase out,

and the sentence should still make sense

without in there.

So take a look at these examples.

We're going to the theater tomorrow, comma, which will be very pleasant.

This is correct.

We put the camera in their naturally

and normally according to our punctuation rules,

and we can compare it to this.

We're going to the theater tomorrow, brackets Friday comma,

which will be very pleasant.

So because we naturally have that common there

after the phrase and then tomorrow we can put it outside the brackets with Friday,

but we can take a look at this.

We're going to the theater tomorrow Friday, which will be very pleasant.

We're missing the comma here because we needed to separate our subordinate clause,

which will be very pleasant from our main clause.

We're going to the theater tomorrow,

so always check your sentence and what it looks like without the bracketed phrase

in there. And you can task whether or not you have used the right punctuation rules.

So you should always double check your sentences and imagine

what they look like without the bracket phrase included.

So you can test whether or not the correct punctuation rules have been used.

Let's take a look again at some more examples, many

so we can take a look at a couple of examples to help us understand this.

Many of the impression lists were based in Paris. This is fine.

We don't need a comma here. This is correct.

Many of the Impressionist, notably money, and

we're based in Paris again.

We don't need any comment here because we wouldn't normally

use it in our sentence without the bracket phrase.

Compared to this incorrect sentence, many of the Impressionist, notably

comma based in Paris so we can see without that

phrase taken out many of the Impressionist comma based in Paris doesn't make sense.

This is one main clause, so this common here is incorrect.

We can also take a look at question marks and exclamation points in brackets,

so they're used inside brackets as needed.

But the punctuation after the closing brackets follows the usual rules.

So, for example, the kind woman what was her name? Let her address.

And we put that question mark inside the bracket because that's a direct question.

Inside the bracket, we're asking what was her name again?

This would therefore be correct. We can take that directed phrase out.

The kind woman left Her address

still makes sense,

but this sentence here would be incorrect. Kind woman. What was her name?

Question Mark Comma left her address because we don't need that comment there.

So this would be wrong.

And the final sentence will go into the theater tomorrow at last exclamation point,

which will be very pleasant so we can see that

this is correct because we have the correct punctuation,

as

so you can see that this is correct. Because if we take that

phrase out, our sentence is still punctuated correctly.

So commerce are placed after the closing bracket.

When it comes at the end of clause,

you only have a comma after brackets when they would naturally be one.

Anyway,

always take that

phrase out and double check. The punctuation is correct for your sentence

so we can take a look at a couple of examples to help us become more familiar with this.

She forgot to invite me, and I'm furious.

Exclamation point inside the brackets,

Full stop outside the brackets so we can see that this would actually be correct.

Because we take that bracket phrase out,

we still need that full stop to end our main clause.

She forgot to invite me and the extra information,

and I'm furious is being exclaimed because it's a lot of intense emotion.

So the exclamation point actually works here, so this would be correct,

and we can compare it to the sentence.

She forgot to invite me, and I'm furious, but we don't have the full stop

and our main close.

So this would be wrong,

because if we take the bracket phrase out that

were left with a sentence without some closing punctuation,

and we can take a look at this example,

I ate the whole cake. Full stop now! I'm stuffed!

Exclamation Mark, we don't need a full stop on the outside.

I think back to our rules that we just had a look at.

We have the punctuation inside here and we don't

need anything else outside because we take this away.

We have our correct sentence remaining.

So full stops are always place outside the closing brackets.

So full stops are always place outside the closing

brackets unless the whole sentence is within the brackets.

So these are the important rules that we need to know in

order to remember how to use brackets and other punctuation correctly.

Let's take a look at a punctuation activity and see if

we can put all of that into practice in order to

make

Let's have a look at

it.

Let's take a look at a punctuation activity and we'll see if we can put all of the

things that we just have a look at into

practice in order to answer some exams style questions.

So here we are, being asked to spot the mistake in a sentence,

and they may not always be a mistake.

So you need to use your knowledge of rackets and punctuation

in order to spot whether or not they've been used correctly

and go through each of the rules that, you know,

remember,

think about what the sentence would look like without the bracketed phrase.

That's the best way that you can check whether or not they have been used correctly.

So take a look at the three sentences on the screen right now,

and you can take two or three minutes

to write down the correctly punctuated sentence.

And if there is no mistake, then you can simply leave it as it is.

So

so you can take two or three minutes now to read through

the sentences and know whether or not there is a mistake.

If you find one,

write down what the mistake is and see if you can correctly punctuate the sentence.

If there is no mistake, you can leave it as it is,

so take

so you can put the video now to have a go.

Okay, if you've all had a go at that, let's take a look at the answers,

and it's a great idea to have a go at these activities to check your

own knowledge and make sure that you feel

confident with everything that you just learned.

If you find that you are not quite sure about something when you attempt to question,

then that means you can go back,

refresh your knowledge and make sure you are

secure and in order to answer these questions.

So let's take a look. Question one.

Turner born 17 seventy-five comma, is one of the most famous English painters.

This is wrong, and our common here is the incorrect part we should have written.

Turner Born 17 Seventy-five,

is one of the most famous English painters

because we can take out the extra information.

Born 17 Seventy-five,

Turner is one of the most famous English painters. One main clause no common needed.

Our second sentence are knocked over the other bars when I

was trying to clean up the first one full stop.

What a mess, Exclamation mark, Full stop.

This is wrong because we don't need that full stop on the outside of

the closing brackets because what a mess is its own sentence on its own.

And if we remove it, then our original sentence makes sense.

Question three.

The police arrived just when the Robert was leaving

the building and not a moment too soon.

Full stop closing brackets.

So this is wrong because we need some punctuation on the outside of the brackets,

and not a moment too soon is part of the original sentence.

Extra information. So the full stop goes on the outside,

so fantastic work. If you've got all of these right,

let's take a look at three more examples,

and we'll go through the same process again.

Spot the mistake in the sentence and write down what the mistake

is and see if you can rewrite the sentence and correct it.

So it is

actually correct.

So it has the correct punctuation, and they may not always be a mistake.

So if there is no mistake, you can simply right no mistake.

And again I think about what the sentence

would look like without the bracketed phrase.

You can take two or three minutes to read through

the sentences on the screen and write down your answers,

and you can pull the video now.

Okay, Hopefully, we've all had a good go.

Let's take and fix and take a look at the answers.

So the first two here for and six the H m s Tama rain in a vegan ship broken up in 18.

Thirty-eight is a subject of one of Turner's finest works is correct.

There are no mistakes.

We have that comment on the outside of our brackets here because in a vegan ship is our

extra information

inside?

Yeah.

So if we take out the bracket information the sentence would read the H m s

and a vegan ship is the subject of one of

his finest works so common in a vegan ship comma is actually

correct Because that's one of our subordinate phrases inside our main claws.

And the bracket of phrase goes inside that phrase. Oh, my God,

that's so confused.

Uh,

yeah.

So if we take a look at the sentence without the bracketed phrase the h m s t

r a

tomorrow tomorrow?

Yeah,

Just stop. Just do the whole thing again. All right?

So the question for hmm camera in a vegan ship broken in.

Okay,

this time.

So the question for the H.

M s camera in a vegan ship broken up in 18

thirty-eight is the subject of one of Turner's finest works.

So we take out the

phrase the H.

M s camera in a vegan ship comma is the subject of one of Turner's finest works.

We can see that that is punctuated correctly because in

a vegan ship should go in these enclosed commerce here.

So this would be correct. There's no mistake.

And six here,

the dancers who had been practicing for months breathe

a sigh of relief as the curtain felt.

We can take that

phrase out.

The dancers breathe a sigh of relief as the curtain felt, and it still makes sense.

This has no mistakes.

Question five. My mother promised the headmistress that I wouldn't do it again.

We'll stop. I did do it again. Close brackets is, of course wrong. Because we need

yeah,

is, of course wrong because we need a full stop here to end the

yeah

is, of course wrong because we need

yeah,

question five. My mother promised the headmistress that I wouldn't do it again.

Full stop. I did do it again.

Close bracket is of course wrong because we need a

full stop here to end the sentence in the brackets.

So that brings us to the end of the punctuation activity. Fantastic work.

If you've got all of these, Correct.

If you did make a mistake, though, do make a note of the correct answer.

Double-check the rules for getting to the right answer.

Let's take a look now at some rules for one more type of

punctuation that we might have encountered and may encounter in our 11 plus,

which is hyphens.

So these are used to join words together to indicate that

two or more elements of the sentence are linked there,

most often used to form compound words.

So some examples. Princess Charming was sweet, polite and well dressed.

Well-dressed becomes a compound word with the hyphen.

The friendly looking cap walk towards me. We have a three year old child.

We were visiting my mother-in-law.

That half big idea was sure to fail so we can

see that we're joining some words up to make compound words.

But they're also used to show a range of something as well.

So Queen Victoria range from 18 19 to 19 oh one,

and the hyphen there can be replaced with the word to

choose from the numbers 5 to 10,

so it's showing the range of the numbers.

Dashes and brackets are used to add extra information to a sentence.

So we've taken a look at some of the rules for brackets.

We can take a look at how we use dashes as well. It is, in my opinion, the truth.

Dashes sometimes indicate and interrupt.
