00:01 - 00:02
hello, Year five is Miss Parker here?
00:03 - 00:05
I'm going to try something new today and go through
00:06 - 00:08
this PowerPoint presentation on inverted commerce.
00:09 - 00:13
So welcome to the lesson.
00:14 - 00:16
We're going to talk about inverted commas today because we're
00:17 - 00:20
going to look at some in the story that we
00:20 - 00:21
read last week.
00:22 - 00:26
So first of all inverted commerce can be called speak
00:26 - 00:28
marks or quotation marks.
00:28 - 00:30
We've done it before, so it should be familiar to
00:30 - 00:41
you. Okay, so as you can see here, we need
00:41 - 00:43
to make sure that we've got our inverted commas at
00:44 - 00:46
the beginning on dth e end of the speech, you
00:47 - 00:51
can see here that the words lower, please, are the
00:51 - 00:53
bits that came out of the person's mouth on afterwards,
00:54 - 00:58
it says, I said the quotation marks or speech marks
00:59 - 01:01
are before and after lower please.
01:09 - 01:11
Something else that's really important is that if somebody new
01:12 - 01:14
is speaking, then you need to put it on the
01:14 - 01:14
next line.
01:15 - 01:17
So here it says, How are you doing today?
01:18 - 01:18
Asked Henry.
01:19 - 01:21
I'm great, said Ashton.
01:22 - 01:24
So Henry says, How are you doing today?
01:26 - 01:28
But then, when Ashton starts talking, it goes to the
01:29 - 01:30
next line, he says.
01:30 - 01:30
I'm great.
01:38 - 01:40
Another important thing is to make sure that you begin
01:41 - 01:42
your speech with a capital letter.
01:43 - 01:46
Here. You can see the W in what is in
01:47 - 01:50
capitals, but we don't need a capital on he.
01:51 - 01:54
That's still the same sentence where it says he announced
01:55 - 01:57
its just telling you that somebody said it.
01:58 - 01:59
So we just need to make sure that the capital
02:00 - 02:01
letter is at the beginning off the sentence.
02:02 - 02:05
The beginning off the direct speech that's been said.
02:16 - 02:19
Okay, so something out on punctuation, you need to make
02:19 - 02:22
sure that you've got other little bits of punctuation in
02:22 - 02:22
your sentences.
02:23 - 02:26
Well, so here we can see the quotation marks or
02:26 - 02:29
the speech marks or inverted commerce is we're calling them
02:29 - 02:32
our before and after the speech.
02:33 - 02:35
There are times I feel that you are a little
02:36 - 02:42
cold, so there are inverted commerce before they're on after
02:43 - 02:45
cold. But you can also see that there are a
02:45 - 02:46
couple of commerce.
02:47 - 02:50
There's a comma after times because that supports in the
02:50 - 02:53
sentence, and also there's a comma after cold.
02:54 - 02:58
There needs to be something there before you close your
02:59 - 03:00
inverted commerce on.
03:01 - 03:03
Also, you can see there's a full stop right at
03:03 - 03:04
the end of the sentence.
03:05 - 03:09
If it was something surprising, you might have a a
03:10 - 03:11
net exclamation mark.
03:11 - 03:15
Instead, if somebody was asking a question, you would have
03:15 - 03:19
a question mark on that would go before the last
03:20 - 03:21
inverted commerce.
03:28 - 03:31
Okay, so here it's just talking about reporting a clause.
03:31 - 03:36
So include in your sentences information about who is speaking
03:37 - 03:38
on, even how they're speaking.
03:39 - 03:40
This is good reporting a clause.
03:44 - 03:45
Have a little look at this now.
03:52 - 03:53
Okay, that's the end of the presentation.
03:54 - 03:55
You can go back and have a little look over
03:55 - 03:58
this and read through the slides in your own time.
03:59 - 04:00
You can pause it on.
04:00 - 04:02
I'm going to set you a task today.
04:03 - 04:03
Thanks a lot.
