WHY YOU'LL LOVE THIS RESOURCE:
Covering all 11 modality categories, from degree (low, medium, high) to type (probability, occurrence, obligation, inclination) and word class (modal verbs, adjectives, adverbs, nouns), this resource gives students a complete, structured reference rather than a partial overview. Choose from three colour options and two orientations to suit your classroom space, and simply print and display with minimal prep.
The editable templates, display cards, blank example card option, and hands-on sorting activity offer flexible ways to introduce, practise, reinforce, and revisit modality. Teachers can customise and co-construct displays with students, creating a valuable year-round classroom reference that supports both explicit persuasive writing instruction and independent writing.
EDITABLE TEMPLATES
Editable Canva and Microsoft PowerPoint templates allow you to customise the text and any fonts that are not part of the design.
Please note: The page design, graphics, colours and overall layout are fixed.
