WALT identify direct speech and indirect speech.

WILF:

We have been learning about how to use speech in our writing.

Remember to follow these key rules when adding speech:

You need speech marks around what is being spoken.
You need a capital letter at the start of the sentences.
You need a reporting clause to say who is speaking and how they are saying it.
You need either a comma, exclamation mark, question mark or full stop at the end of what is being spoken.
The speech marks must come after the punctuation.
Don't forget a full stop at the end of the whole sentence.

Using these rules try and complete the task sheets below.
