The dog chased the cat, or the cat was chased by the dog — same event, different voice. A one-hour Year 6 English grammar lesson on active and passive voice, ages 10 to 11. The lesson covers: spotting the subject of a sentence; active voice, where the subject does the verb; passive voice, where the action happens to the subject; a three-step method for switching between them that always works; and choosing the voice that suits the job — a Year 6 skill that makes writing look really sophisticated. Ready-to-teach PowerPoint, no prep.
