GramAttic is designed for students aged between 7 and over, to support with regular practice of Grammar & Punctuation. Each activity involves working with sentences and students may require determination or repeated attempts to achieve.
The attic acts as both launch page and an adaptable environment. From here, use the menu to navigate to activities in GramAttic.
Clicking on different elements on the page changes them, creating your own look and feel. Additional items can also be purchased with coins earned in the activities.
From the attic, clicking on the piggy bank will take you to the shop where coins earned can be used to purchase extra items for the room.
The shop page displays the item's cost as well as an icon to show whether it has been purchased or is currently on display. To change which item is displayed, simply go to the attic page and click on it.
Read the text and add the necessary punctuation. At the bottom of the screen, the information box tells students how many changes are need and hints at what they are. When ready, click on "Check" to mark the work.
The 'Check' button can be clicked repeatedly, making changes until the text is correct, however, the amount of coins available will reduce. If clicked too many times, then there won't be any coins left to win.
Opener Options encourages consideration of sentence structures, especially different ways of starting.
Again, every time the 'Check' button is clicked, if there are errors, the amount of coins will reduce.
Sentence Station encourages recognition of the different parts of a sentence.
Earn coins by finding main clauses, sub-clauses, noun phrases and guessing the correct conjunction. Relative clauses and relative pronouns are covered too.
Homophone Hub is all about those words which sound the same, but have different spellings depending on their meaning.
Listen to the sentence and then type in the correct spellings to earn coins. There are a number of levels and options to turn of regular homophones from lower levels
