Sentence Builder (VA #20)
Before the lesson, prepare the Sentence Builder cards. You will need the following cards: pronouns,
verbs (for example: like, eat) and the verb ending "-s", negation cards (do not, does not) and noun
phrases (things) (for example: football, candy, ice cream, etc.).
Pass out the cards, one per pupil.
Have pupils stand in a line to create sentences. Say a sentence and have the pupils who hold the
correct cards stand at the front of the class. For example: (He) (like)(s) (ice cream.) / (She) (does
not) (eat) (cream.)
Say a new sentence by changing either the pronoun, verb form (positive or negative), or noun phrase
at a time. Play a few times to have pupils practice building sentences, especially focusing on
combining the correct pronoun and form of the verb in a Present Simple sentence.
