Sentence Builder (VA #20)
Before the lesson, prepare the Sentence Builder cards. You will need the following cards: pronouns,
to be verbs (was, were), negation card (not), and adjectives (for example: strong, happy, healthy, tall,
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: (You) (were) (happy). / (You) (were) (not)
(happy).
Say a new sentence by changing either the pronoun, negation card, or adjective at a time. Play a few
times to have pupils practice building sentences, especially focusing on combining the correct order
of the words in a Past: to be sentence.
