LC: Collect examples of subordinating conjunctions.

Tell your talk partner what the job is of a subordinating conjunction...

 I have hidden 3 subordinating conjunctions in the passage below. These are "because", "if", and "when".

Can you find them?

Go on to Markup and highlight them. 

"Will you walk into my parlour?" said the spider to the fly;
"'Tis the prettiest little parlour that ever you did spy.
The way into my parlour is up a winding stair,
because I have many curious things to show when you are there."

"O no, no," said the little fly, "to ask me is in vain,
for who goes up your winding stair can ne'er come down again."

"I'm sure you must be weary, dear, with soaring up so high;
if you rest upon my little bed," said the spider to the fly.
"There are pretty curtains drawn around, the sheets are fine and thin,
and if you like to rest awhile, I’ll snugly tuck you in."

"O no, no," said the little fly, "because I've often heard it said,
they NEVER, NEVER WAKE again, who sleep upon YOUR bed."

We will orally practice the sentence that has the subordinating conjunctions and see in what order they have been used.

Before the main clause or after?

LC: To plan my own narrative.

On Monday, we created a toolkit for our daydream. 

We are going to plan where our spider is daydreaming and what types of food he is daydreaming about.

Remember to use inverted comma's when writing about the food that the spider daydreams about.

Finally, think about how the spider comes by.
