Easy sentences for first grade
Writing Sentences in First Grade
Writing sentences in first grade, kindergarten, or second grade can be a difficult thing to do. Today, I wanted to share the steps I walk through the get my primary students feeling comfortable writing sentences. They will learn the parts of a sentence, how to write a complete sentence, and how to make detailed sentences.
You can see all this information by watching the video below over on my YouTube channel:

To read the 5 steps I take to teaching sentence writing here, just keep scrolling!
Step 1: EXPLAIN what a sentence is
Explicit teaching is so important when teaching a new skill. This anchor chart can be found in my Sentence Writing Unit on TPT.
When teaching what a sentence is, I explain that a sentence is a group of words that when put together, share a complete thought. I also like to point out the naming part and telling part of a sentence, along with the fact that our sentences start with capital letters and end with punctuation.
We will usually talk about the progression of letters and how letters make words, then we use words to make sentences, and sentences to make paragraphs, etc.
Step 2: Identify Parts of a Sentence
This is where I want my students to take what I just taught them and make sure they are able to go ahead and identify different parts of a sentence. There are a few different ways I like to do this. I will go ahead and use sentence strips to make a bunch of different naming parts and telling parts of a sentence. You could also just print out these ones I have ready-made in my Sentence Writing Unit on TPT.
I would go ahead and choose one of the naming parts to explain that this is a naming part because it tells us the WHO or the WHAT of the sentence.
I would also point out the capital letter at the beginning. Then I would model holding up a few different telling parts and as a class, we would determine which telling part(s) could complete the sentence to make sense.
After we practice this a few times, I would have students use the naming and telling parts to mix and match and make different sentences and illustrate using a sheet like this:
After they’ve practiced this a few times, as an extension, I would have them identify the parts of a sentence using a practice sheet like this one below where they use different colors to identify both parts of a sentence and then illustrate to show understanding.
Step 3: Model how to write our own sentences
Once students know what a sentence is and they can easily identify sentences and their parts, we move into teaching them HOW to write their own sentences. To do this, I like to use an anchor chart like this one to show them the 5 steps I follow:
Now depending on how you teach writing in your classroom, you will likely teach this slightly differently.
For example, if you teach using the writing workshop method, you will teach how to write these sentences within your writing unit. Let’s pretend you are teaching personal narratives and you’ve already done your illustrations. To model writing a sentence, I would use my illustration to brainstorm a sentence (My sister and I went to the beach). I would model saying it aloud, counting the words, drawing the lines, writing, and then reading it back. We would do this a few times so students can see how I would brainstorm sentences to add to my story.
If you’re teaching how to write sentences as a stand-alone unit, then there are 3 different ways I like to teach students to write their own sentences.
(1) Predictable sentences
(2) Sight word sentences
(3) Illustration sentences
With predictive sentences, you are doing the most work by giving students an almost complete sentence and they need to think of their own word or two to finish it. This is great for kindergarten students so they can copy over correct words and feel confident, then add their own word(s) to create their sentence.
Sight word sentences take it one step further as you supply students with a common word and they must make their own sentence using the word. Lastly, illustration sentences are fun because they just look at an illustration and brainstorm their own sentence about what they believe is happening in the picture. As you can imagine, these are scaffolded a bit so you can use the different sentence types with different grade levels or groupings of students depending on what they need at the time.
Step 4: Write, write, write
Now it’s time for students to practice writing their own sentences. In my Sentence Writing Unit, I created a bunch of practice sheets for students to begin creating their own sentences. There are 12 different sheets for each type of sentence (predictive, sight word, and illustration sentences). Also, at the bottom of each practice sheet, I made some checkboxes where students can mark off if they’ve added a capital letter, punctuation, spaces, and if they’ve read it back to make sure it makes sense.
This way students get used to checking what they write.
You can see what some of the practice sheets look like here:
Step 5: Expand!
Okay once students can write their own sentences, we need to get our students to expand their sentences and start writing more details! To help with this, I like to use the question words. To model, I will simply start with a sentence like this one:
Original sentence: The girl sat.
Super sentence: Jenny sat at her desk and ate her snack.
Then we walk through some of the question words, and with the help of my students, we expand our sentence to create our own super sentence! I make sure to explain to students how when we add more details to our sentences, the reader gains so much more information about what is happening in our story.
You can have students practice this by generating simple sentences, then have students use the question words to expand the sentences.
I have a bunch of these practice sheets in my sentence writing unit along with everything else in this post.
I like to have students expand their sentences within their writing workshop pieces as well. These free posters to help students ask themselves specific questions depending on whether they are writing a fiction or nonfiction piece.

You can see that depending on your class’s grade level and skill level, you might jump in at step 3 or 4. You may also use any of these activities in small groups depending on what your students need.

The Best Simple Sentences for Kindergarten
There are so many fulfilling perks to teaching kindergarten, but near the top of the list is teaching students how to read.
I think one of the best parts of literacy instruction is seeing the excitement in my students’ eyes when they start reading sentences! Once students are ready to take that step, it’s just a matter of keeping up that momentum and excitement with additional practice. In this post, I’m sharing some of my favorite ways to use simple sentences for kindergarten reading instruction.
Are My Students Ready for Reading Sentences?
Before we can expect young learners to read even simple sentences, it’s important to make sure they have the right foundation. The road to reading sentences includes important milestones such as:
- Identifying letters by name
- Identifying the sounds that letters make
- Blending sounds together to read words
- Reading words fluently in isolation, including sight words
Plus, between each milestone is a variety of phonemic and phonological awareness skills that need to be mastered in order to build a solid foundation for reading.
Once this foundation is in place, students are ready to begin reading words within sentences. Keep reading if you’d like to sneak a peek at the simple sentences that I use with kindergarten students when they’re ready to take this exciting step!
Simple Sentences for Kindergarten
There are many ways to practice reading sentences in kindergarten. Below are some of my favorite ways to incorporate simple sentences into literacy instruction. I love that these activities are perfect for literacy centers, morning work, small group intervention, or even homework! These activities also grow with students, so that they can read more challenging sentences as they learn more phonics patterns and master additional high frequency words.
Sight Word Fluency Sentences
When students first start reading words within sentences, it’s helpful to start with predictable text. I find that sight word fluency sentences are perfect for this!
These simple sentences often arrange the sight words in a predictable pattern, such as “I see a cat.
” and “I see a pig.” This means that students can practice decoding words within sentences while building their sight word fluency. It’s a win-win!
Read and Reveal Sentences
Hands-on activities will help students stay engaged in reading practice. Read and reveal cards are always a hit with students! This activity has students read simple sentences on a card, then unclip the flap to reveal a picture that corresponds to the sentence. Students will use their comprehension skills to decide if the sentence they read makes sense with the picture they just uncovered.
Since this adds an element of self-correction to the activity, read and reveal cards are perfect for literacy centers, morning work, or even a fast finisher activity. The fine motor practice from using clips for this activity is an added bonus!
Sentence Scramble Activities
As students grow more comfortable with reading sentences, they will start to get a feel for the natural rhythm of language and word order.
This, in turn, will help improve reading fluency. One of my favorite ways to help students understand and practice word order is with sentence scramble activities. After putting a sentence in the correct order, they can practice reading it fluently.
You can add some cutting practice by having the students cut out the scrambled words themselves. Plus, having the word strips available to move around helps students in the task of unscrambling each sentence.
Sentence Dictation
Writing activities are another way that I incorporate simple sentences into literacy instruction. When students write sentences, they are able to practice their phonics skills in a different, yet still very important, way. Sentence dictation is a great activity that incorporates many kindergarten skills!
After listening to a simple sentence, students will use their phonics skills to write each word in the sentence. Then they will use their fine motor skills to form the letters and words in the sentence.
Finally, students will practice reading what they wrote as they decide if their written sentence matches what the teacher said. Sentence dictation doesn’t have to take a lot of time! If you have whiteboards and markers out for a different activity, do a quick sentence dictation before having the students put things away.
Sight Word Sentence Strips
This is another activity that incorporates writing as students practice reading sentences. Students can use these sight word sentence strips to practice decoding sentences fluently as they practice writing them as well.
Once these strips are laminated for durability, students can use dry erase marker to practice letter formation as they copy each sentence. This is another activity that students can work on independently during literacy centers or morning work time.
Since these sight word sentences are prepped and on binder rings, you can also take them on the go for even more practice! Use them as “password” flashcards: Have each student read a sentence from the bundle before entering the cafeteria, going outside for recess, or leaving for the day.
Kindergarten Reading Fluency Passages
Young learners get so excited when they can start reading passages with multiple sentences! This is why I love to use kindergarten reading fluency passages. Students are able to review phonics patterns and high frequency words as they improve their reading fluency and comprehension skills.
After students have had time to practice each passage in the classroom, I encourage them to take it home and read it to friends and family. They are always so excited to show off their reading skills!
