About this worksheet
Year 5 modal verbs in persuasive writing, over three pages. Pupils read a six-sentence letter asking the head teacher for a longer playtime, where might and could make every sentence sound unsure, and rewrite it with should, must and will. In Task 2 they write their own persuasive paragraph with at least three underlined modal verbs, on a topic such as a class pet or no homework on Fridays. Page 3 has sample answers. It follows the England National Curriculum for Year 5 grammar.
