understand how consistency of tense through verbs and verb groups achieves clarity in sentences

How Bloomi helps with this

This is a NAPLAN-year topic. Bloomi teaches it with a short explainer, guided practice, and NAPLAN-style questions — every one traceable to this exact code.

What this looks like in the classroom

• identifying and discussing how verb tense is maintained in compound, complex and compound-complex sentences
• identifying and discussing different forms of verb tenses and their use to maintain consistency of tense in different sentences; for example, “I organise the cake stall every week, and I am running the meeting this weekend, as well.”
