Fascinating Fact:

Use the right tense, so the time makes sense, like “Yesterday I played” or “Today I am playing”. This helps your sentence sound correct.

In KS1 English Spelling, Year 2 pupils practise building strong sentences. A good sentence usually starts with a capital letter, makes sense when read aloud, and ends with the correct punctuation. Choosing the best sentence helps you write more clearly and avoid common mistakes.

Key Terms

  • Sentence: A group of words that makes sense on its own.
  • Punctuation: Marks like a full stop or question mark that help readers understand your writing.
  • Capital letter: A big letter used at the start of a sentence and for names.

Frequently Asked Questions (Click to see answers)

How do you know if a sentence is written correctly in Year 2?

A correct Year 2 sentence starts with a capital letter, makes sense when you read it, and ends with the right punctuation, like a full stop, question mark, or exclamation mark.

What punctuation should Year 2 use at the end of a sentence?

Year 2 children often use a full stop for a statement, a question mark for a question, and an exclamation mark for a strong feeling. The punctuation should match what the sentence is doing.

Why is it important to use capital letters in sentences?

Capital letters help writing look correct and easy to read. You need a capital letter at the start of every sentence, and for names like “Sam” or “London”.
