What is grammar?
‘Studying how language works – grammar – should help young writers to say what
they want to say as effectively as they can.’
‘When we read texts we read like a reader…When we write, we write like a
writer, but also need to imagine the reader of our writing.’
This isn’t and shouldn’t be about a SPAG test. It has to be about improving
children’s writing.

pronoun.
