understand that in sentences, nouns may be extended into noun groups using articles and adjectives, and verbs may be expressed as verb groups

• identifying nouns that refer to people, places, concrete objects and ideas in sentences, and identifying the articles and adjectives that extend those nouns
• building extended noun groups using articles and adjectives, for example ‘the longest side’
• building extended verb groups using verbs, for example ‘gently touched’
• investigating how noun groups can be built up by asking questions about the noun such as ‘How many?’, ‘What’s it like?’ and ‘What type?’, for example ‘two pairs of old walking shoes’
