Sentence making for kids
How To Make The Most Of Simple Sentences For Kids
When a child finally learns how to construct their own simple sentences, for kids (and parents!), it’s a really special moment.
Word combinations such as “knee sore” turn into, “Mommy, my knee is sore.” Or “now juice” develops into, “Can I have some juice?”
There’s no denying the importance of sentences — they help us better express our thoughts and feelings. So the only question now is: How can you help your child start constructing their own sentences so that they, too, can communicate better?
Two words: simple sentences.
When Do Kids Start Forming Sentences?
Children start forming sentences once they know a few words. But language development is quite a journey!
Somewhere between 18 and 24 months, a toddler will begin constructing two-word “sentences,” like “want milk” or “no sleep.” At this stage, they are linking two or more words together to express an idea. This is the first step and a big milestone.
By four years old (sometimes earlier), most children are speaking in complete sentences. But that doesn’t mean they’ve reached the end of their sentence journey.
While your child may be speaking in complete sentences, finding playful ways to expose four and five year olds to sophisticated aspects of sentences while being kid appropriate is beneficial. This will help them continue developing their language skills.
One of the best ways to do so is to encourage children to speak in complex sentences to express their ideas. How? This can be achieved by simply resisting the temptation to simplify our own speech.
Remember that children are learning sponges! They will naturally pick up on the language habits you expose them to. So, continue speaking in complex sentences while in their presence. It’s not a bad thing if your child asks, “What does that mean?”
Of course, simple sentences come first.
What Makes A Simple Sentence?
A simple sentence is the most basic form of a sentence. It contains only one independent clause — a group of words that forms a complete thought and is made up of a subject and predicate (which includes a verb and expresses what is said about the subject).
For example, in the simple sentence, Thomas kicks the ball, “Thomas” is the simple subject and “kicks the ball” is the predicate, with “kicks” being the verb, or simple predicate.
Simple sentences for kids are mostly short, but they can also be long. The length of the sentence isn’t the focus. What’s important is that the basic elements (subject and predicate) are always present.
When we communicate in our everyday lives, there’s usually a good mixture of both simple and more complex sentences without us even thinking about it. In order to help our kids reach this effortless communication stage, we need to help them understand the basics.
The good thing about the English language (and every other language, actually!) is that once you understand the basics, moving on to complicated structures is easier.
Simple Sentences For Kids To Act Out
One of the best ways for children to learn is through acting things out. If you have an active young child who enjoys moving around, why not use their energy to encourage some learning?
Here are some simple sentences for kids they will have fun acting out.
- He reads a book.
- The dog barks.
- The cat sits on the mat.
- I hop on one foot.
- The pig gobbles his food.
- The rooster crows.
With these sentences for kids, your child will have a blast while naturally learning what makes up a sentence!
Other Ways To Practice Sentences For Kids
1) Use Pictures
We recommend having your child use pictures to make up stories. You can even record the stories and listen to them for a little added fun!
If your child wants to write their ideas, too, that’s great! But don’t worry about standard spelling; much more important is the creative effort involved in thinking of a great story composed of interesting sentences of their own creation.
You can use pictures of animals, nature, sports, or even family photos. Then encourage your child to share whatever comes to their mind after having a look at these images.
During the first session, your child may need a few verbal prompts to help them get started. Simple questions like, “What’s happening in the picture?” or “What does this image remind you of?” can help to get their creativity flowing.
If you have multiple children, you can allow them to share what they came up with about the same image. As individuals, they will most likely think of different sentences, so this is a great opportunity to emphasize how everyone has unique ideas.
We encourage you to allow your children creative freedom here. The idea is to place an image in front of them and let them create anything they feel like creating.
2) Play Sentence Games
If you’ve been following our blog for a while, you’ll know one thing for sure — the HOMER team loves a good game! Games are not only fun, but they’re also great ways to help children remember fundamental learning concepts.
One of our favorite sentence games is Sentence Mix & Match.
What You’ll Need:
- Several index cards
- Markers to write with
What To Do:
- Write interesting subjects on half of the index cards (Ideally, these are things that your child likes. For example: dinosaurs, ice cream, different shapes, colors, etc.).
- On the other half, write predicates or sentence endings that make sense with your individual subjects.
- After writing, place the cards so that they make realistic sentences.
- Then, turn all the cards over and shuffle them. At this point, you want to ensure that you separate sentence beginnings and endings.
- After the shuffle, turn your cards over and discover what silly sentences you get.
- Remember to begin the subject cards with capital letters and sentence-endings cards with a period.
This is a fun activity to help children see that sentences are not always set in stone. They will also quickly learn that the meaning of a sentence can change when words get moved around.
3) Play With Types Of Sentences
Sentence Mix & Match is not the only way to help children learn sentences for kids while also having fun. Another activity we’re huge fans of is playing with types of sentences. Specifically — statements, questions, and exclamations.
To get started, pick any simple sentence that your child will already be familiar with (e.g., “I like playing outside.”).
Next, encourage your child to say this same sentence as a statement, a question, and then an exclamation.
Similar to Sentence Mix & Match, this game helps children understand that minor tweaks can change the meaning of a sentence.
Children will come across punctuation marks during reading time, but they may not always understand the significance of each. This game will help your child learn how periods, question marks, and exclamation points affect a sentence.
5) Make A Switch
The subject and predicate for each simple sentence have a specific function. For children to use these correctly, they will need to understand what their roles are.
When kids start speaking as babies and then toddlers, they often repeat words, phrases, or the simple sentences they’ve heard from you, your partner, siblings, or other people around them.
At this stage, they haven’t fully grasped the functions of subjects and predicates. If we want to help our children develop their own sentences, we will need to help them understand the roles of these sentence parts.
A creative game they (and you!) will enjoy involves switching the subjects and predicates of a sentence.
Start with a simple three-word sentence, like, “A cat played.” Then take turns changing either the subject or the predicate of the sentence.
This may look something like this:
- A cat jumped
- A dog jumped
- A dog growled
- A gerbil growled
- A gerbil scampered
Once your young learner is confident switching three-word sentences, move on to four words, five words, and so forth.
Through this fun activity, your child will start understanding the roles of predicates and subjects in sentences.
Simple Sentences For The Win!
A child’s language journey is pretty incredible. It often starts with lots of babbling and moves to single words. Soon, you get two-word combinations, and before you know it, you’re given a detailed account of what happened in class today.
As you’re doing the activities we’ve mentioned, remember to allow your child creative freedom. We know that language has a lot of rules, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be fun! Encourage your young learner to be as imaginative as they want to be.
For instance, if they write or say, “The lion growls at the dinosaur,” let’s celebrate the correct sentence construction and, for a moment, imagine a world where lions and dinosaurs exist in the same age!

Teaching Kids How to Write Super Sentences
How do you encourage your students to write longer, more interesting sentences? You know what will happen if you simply ask them to write longer sentences… they’ll just add more words to the end, resulting in long, rambling run-ons!
After struggling with this problem myself, I developed a method that helped my students learn how to turn boring sentences into super sentences. I began by teaching them the difference between fragments, run-ons, and complete sentences. Then we practiced revising and expanding basic sentences to make them more interesting. After I modeled the activity and they practiced it in a whole group setting, they played a game called Sentence Go Round in their cooperative learning teams. The difference in their writing was dramatic! Before long, they were adding more detail to their sentences without creating run-ons in the process.
Step 1: Mini-Lesson on Sentences, Fragments, and Run-ons
Begin by explaining that complete sentences can be short or long, but they must have two basic parts, a subject and a predicate. The subject tells who or what the sentence is about, and the predicate is the action part of the sentence, or the part that tells what the subject is doing. If it’s missing one of those parts, it’s a fragment. If it has a whole string of sentences that run on and on without proper punctuation, it’s a run-on sentence.
Next display a series of phrases or sentences and ask your students to decide if each on is a fragment, a complete sentence, or a run-on. Try these:
- Rabbits hop. (Your students will say it’s a fragment since it’s so short, but it’s actually a complete sentence.)
- The big brown fluffy rabbit in the garden. (Looks like a sentence, but it’s missing a predicate.)
- Rabbits love to eat carrots and one hopped into our garden and I thought it was cute even though it was eating the carrots. (A run-on of course … kids don’t usually have trouble spotting these, but you might want to have them find all the subjects and predicates to make your point.)
- The hungry rabbit hopped into the garden because he wanted to eat a carrot. (Even though this one is long, it’s not a run-on because it only had one subject and one predicate.)
Step 2: Mini-Lesson on Revising & Expanding Sentences
After your students can distinguish between fragments, run-ons, and complete sentences, it’s time for them to practice their sentence-writing skills by learning how to revise and expand basic sentences. This activity should be modeled in a whole group or guided literacy group first, and older children can do the activity later in cooperative learning teams. To start the activity, you need a set of task cards with basic sentences that lack detail. I used an example from the Fall Sentences to Expand freebie for this lesson, but you can use task cards from any of the seasonal freebies below.
Whole Class Modeling:
- Start by selecting a basic sentence from the Fall, Winter, Spring, or Summer task cards above. Let’s use the fall-themed sentence, “She picked apples.” Write the sentence on the board or show it to the class using a document camera.
- Explain that “She picked apples” is boring, but if we ask ourselves questions about it, we can add details that answer the question and make it more interesting. For example, if we ask “Who picked apples?” we can name someone specific. Demonstrate how to make the change as shown below.
- It’s still a boring sentence, so let’s ask, “How many?” and say that Mary picked a dozen apples.
- Go through the same process, each time repeating the revised sentence and asking another question. After 4 rounds of changes, it might look like the one in step 4 below.
Whole Class Interactive Lesson:
- Next, repeat the process and actively involve your students. Ask one student to randomly select a sentence card and write it on the board.
- Then ask all students to think about a question they could ask and how they could revise the sentence to add one detail. It can be more than one word, but it shouldn’t be more than a short phrase that answers that question. If all students have individual dry erase boards or chalkboards, ask them to write down their revisions and show them to you.
- Call on one student to come forward and display his or her revised sentence.
- Repeat the process three or four more times until you’ve created a sentence that’s detailed and interesting, but not a run-on.
Modification Idea: If you notice that some students are creating run-on sentences, ask everyone to pair with a partner before sharing with the class to make sure all sentences are complete sentences.
Step 3: Cooperative Learning Writing Activity
The first two steps are the perfect segue into Sentence Go Round, an activity for cooperative learning teams or small groups to practice expanding sentences. The product below includes sample sentences for the teacher to display, as well as printables for students and a sorting activity to practice identifying fragments, run-ons, and complete sentences. Sentence Go Round also includes activity directions and question cards to prompt students as they are creating their new sentences. To preview the entire resource, click over to see Sentence Go Round in my TpT store.
Step 4: Google Classroom Sentence Writing Practice
It’s important to follow up with independent practice, so I’ve created some Google Classroom resources to supplement the cooperative learning, hands-on activities in Sentence Go Round. Sensational Sentences: Sentence Writing Practice includes a Google slide presentation to introduce the concepts, 2 digital sentence sorting activities, 2 self-checking Google Quizzes, 2 sentence writing activities, and 3 editable templates.
If you want to use the cooperative learning activity Sentence Go Round AND the Google Classrooms materials, check out my Sensational Sensational Sentences Bundle which includes both resources at a discounted price.
I hope your students enjoy these lessons and Sentence Go Round as much as mine did, and that they will soon be writing super sentences instead of boring ones!
Methods and techniques for working on a proposal
Osipova V.M.
In the preschool group, children must learn to analyze and synthesize sentences. This work contributes not only to the preparation for literacy, but also to the general speech and mental development of children. Without it, the student's idea of a word is indefinite, and the ability to analyze the verbal composition of a sentence develops very slowly.
Since preschoolers do not have knowledge of syntax, teaching the correct construction of sentences should be done practically. This is the culminating process of speech formation with its underdevelopment.
Each child of the speech group must master the ability to divide a sentence into words, name the number of words in it, any word in order, come up with a sentence for a given number of words, make a deformed sentence, write down the sentence graphically.
We advise you to start by isolating sentences from the story and counting their number. After listening to how many times the voice was lowered, the children will determine the number of sentences. Then the sentences need to be memorized, naming the first, second, etc. in order. At the same time, children lay out sticks or bend their fingers. Next, the speech therapist must bring in signal cards indicating the proposal.
In the next step, children learn that a sentence is made up of words. The basis of the proposed methodology is the variants of the game "Live Words". Each child depicts a “living word”, and all children must understand that a sentence consists of words.
It is recommended to use tasks that develop the ability to analyze and synthesize sentences.
1. Make sentences of two or three words. Come up with a sentence about a house, about an object made of paper, iron, wood.
2. Repeat only the first two words in the given sentence. The autumn forest is beautiful.
3. Replace the last word with another. The girl is feeding the chickens.
4. Compose an offer according to the given scheme.
5. Compose a sentence with the given key words. Fluffy ... spinning.
6. Repair the deformed sentence.
7. Make a sentence with compound words. Ice drift, beekeeper, snowfall.
8. Compose a complex sentence with conjunctions and write it down graphically. The boy fell because he stumbled.
9. Independently construct a proposal for this beginning. Birds fly south when...
10. Combine simple sentences into one complex one. Wintering sparrows… Migratory starlings…
11. Unravel sentences-fables "Confusion". A red crocodile is flying. - A green crocodile is crawling.
12. Make a sentence from "living words".
13. Make a proposal for an illustration or illustrative-graphic record.
14. Make a three-word sentence by adding your own words. Cat, boy, garden.

Organizational moment
Speech therapist. Today I came to the kindergarten early and brought Petrushka. Look, he has a story in the envelope. Let's read it.
Autumn has come. The fields were harvested. Birds fly south. The animals are getting ready for winter.
Children, come up with a title for this story. (Hangs up pictures on the board depicting the four seasons.) Choose a picture about autumn on the board.
Children are doing a task.
The concept of the proposal
Speech therapist. Guys, Petrushka was at school today and found out that any story, fairy tale, and just our speech consists of sentences.
Parsley. May I read the first sentence in the story? (Reads.) And now the second and third. (Reads.)
Speech therapist. Children, can you count how many sentences are in the story? Let's set aside chips for each sentence in the story.
The speech therapist reads the story again, the children set aside chips and count them.
The game "Smart tape recorder"
The tape recorder is represented by all the children of the group.
Speech therapist. Tell me guys, can you remember all the sentences in the story? Let's show Petrushka how we can do it. Let's play the game "Smart Tape Recorder". The first time you "write down" the first sentence, the second - the second, and so on. And then I’ll say, “Turn on the tape recorder,” and each row will repeat the recorded sentence in turn. And together you get a story about autumn. Here Petrushka will be surprised!
Children are doing the task.
Vegetable differentiation
and fruits
Dolls with bodywork enter. Put fruits and vegetables on the table.
Speech therapist. Guys, dolls went to the garden and garden. They gathered vegetables from the beds, and fruits from the trees. Help them put vegetables in one box for the Gardener doll, and fruit for the Fructoninka doll.
Children arrange vegetables and fruits in baskets and explain their choice.
Game "What did Grandma
buy at the market?"
Speech therapist. Now we will play the game "What did Grandma buy at the market?". Try to guess my riddles. It grows on a tree. It tastes sweet, round, red. What is this fruit?
Children. Apple.
In the same way, riddles about all vegetables and fruits are guessed.
The result of the lesson
Speech therapist. Look, guys, while we were playing, Petrushka left and took the envelope away. What was in it?
Children. Story.
Speech therapist. And what does the story consist of?
Children. From suggestions.
Speech therapist. You are great, you learned and understood everything. And tomorrow, come up with a little story about vegetables at home too. Then in the kindergarten we will count how many proposals there are.

Organizational moment
Speech therapist. The guys, Pinocchio and Malvina sent us sound letters today. Let's first listen to Pinocchio's letter.
Pinocchio reads in a "wooden" voice, without intonational formalization of sentences, without pauses between them.
Good autumn in the garden. Ripe pears and apples just ask for your mouth. Quickly take the basket and collect fruit. Mom will be happy with the harvest.
Guys, did you understand what Pinocchio wrote?
Children. No.
Speech therapist. Now listen to how Malvin reads this letter.
Malvina's letter sounds.
Why did we understand well what Malvina was reading? That's right, she read expressively, separating one sentence from another. Can you count the sentences in this story? Who's to say how many there are?
Children. Four.
Graphic representation of the sentence
Speech therapist. Guys, I brought you cards today with an offer. (Gives out cards.) The corner is a capital letter at the beginning of a sentence, because the first word in a sentence is always capitalized, and at the end is a period.
_______.
Now I will read the story of Pinocchio and Malvina again, and you will lay out your cards for each sentence. Then we count how many sentences are in the story.
Children are doing the task.
Drawings on the topic of sentences
Speech therapist. To better remember the story, we will make a small drawing for each sentence, which will then help you remember it and tell your mother in the evening.
Children make a small sketch of its content for each sentence.
And now let's remember the whole story. The first drawing is a garden, remember the sentence: It's good in the autumn in the garden. The second picture - apples, pears, the whole sentence: Ripe pears and apples just ask for your mouth. Etc.
Compilation of stories
by pictures
There are pictures on the table. Each child has their own.
Speech therapist. Children, make up stories from your pictures. Lay out as many diagram cards as you have sentences in your story. Each person completes the task independently.
Next, the speech therapist checks all the stories with the children. One child writes sentences graphically on the board.
Game "Delicious juice"
There are jars with different "juices" on the table.
Speech therapist. Mom made delicious pear juice for the winter. How else can it be called? What juice?
Children. Pear.
Speech therapist. And which apple? From plums? Etc.
Children answer each question.

Children come up with sentences about nesting dolls, a rocket, count the number of words, name the first, second words.
The game "Live Words"
Speech therapist. Guys, let's play the game "Live Words". You, Misha, will be the word rocket. And you, Dasha, the word flies. Name your words, first Misha, then Dasha. How many words are in this sentence? What is the first?
Children. There are two words in the sentence. The first word is rocket.
Speech therapist. And the second?
Children. Flies.
Graphic record
sentences
Speech therapist. You see, guys, in a sentence, the words are arranged one after another. I'm going to write this sentence down on the board in dashes. Each dash will mean a word, a corner is a capital letter, and a dot at the end. Write down the sentence Rocket flies in notebooks.
Children are doing the task.
You have the same cards at the box office. Find which card means the first word (with a corner) and which one means the last (with a dot). You must post a sentence Matryoshka stands.

Organizational moment
Speech therapist. Today we will come up with proposals. I came up with a suggestion about a cat. It starts with the word cat. Guys, can you guess my offer? (Hangs up pictures on the board.)
Children. The cat meows. The cat is drinking milk. The cat caught the mouse.
Speech therapist. Well done, guys, you came up with different proposals, but I had this: The cat is playing. Let's write it in notebooks and have someone write it on the blackboard.
Children write in notebooks. One child writes on the board with comments.
Child. The first word is cat, the second word is playing, there are two words in this sentence.
Main part
Speech therapist. Now guys, make up a sentence with the word boy. Sasha will not tell us his offer, but we will try to guess it.
Children. The boy is playing. The boy bathes in the river. The boy is reading.
Speech therapist. Tell me, Sasha, did the children guess your offer? What did you come up with?
Sasha. Didn't guess. I came up with The boy teaches lessons.
Speech therapist. Here is a good sentence Sasha composed. Let's count how many words it contains. For each word, you need to get a card from the cash register and lay out a sentence.
Children (lay out a sentence from cards). There are three words in this sentence. The first word is a boy, the second is teaching, the third is lessons.
Speech therapist. You did everything right, guys, well done.
Now make up a sentence about chicken.
Children. The chicken pecks at the grain.
Speech therapist. Who is this proposal talking about?
Children. About the chicken.
Speech therapist. What is said about the chicken?
Children. That she pecks at the grain.
Speech therapist. You see, guys, in the sentence the subject is not only called, but something new, interesting is said about it. From this sentence, we learn that the chicken pecks at the grain. Listen again: grandmother, granddaughter, loves. Did I make an offer?
Children. No.
Speech therapist. That's right, this is not a sentence, but just individual words. To make a sentence, the words must be correctly arranged so that the words are friends. Masha, try to say a sentence about your grandmother.
Masha. Grandmother loves her granddaughter.
Speech therapist. Very well, we found out that the grandmother loves her granddaughter. And now Natasha will come up with a proposal about her granddaughter.
Natasha. Granddaughter loves her grandmother.
The result of the lesson
Speech therapist. So, guys, we have learned how to make sentences, write them down correctly, lay out cards. What did you like about the lesson, and whose suggestion did you remember? Come up with a suggestion for your favorite toy at home.
Children answer questions.

G.P. Belyakova. The words in this living model are depicted by children. In the
game process, the teacher calls as many children as
words in a sentence, and tells everyone what word he will
be. 0007 composition of the proposal. When naming the words in order, children
can "read" the sentence
intended or spoken. Thus, in this "living" model, speech
reality stands out as an object of observation,
study.
The teacher calls three children (“living words”) who will
speak the words of sentences, puts them in order.
The teacher addresses the children: "Listen to what the children will say"
Tanya will have the word
workers

Now listen to what these children have to say.
The teacher says words to the children in the ear.
At the sign of the teacher, they pronounce the words of the sentence, but not
sequentially, but all together, at the same time.

Words in a speech are pronounced sequentially, one after the other.

Conclusion
Children acquire the ability to divide sentences and
compose them from words, get acquainted with speech as
linguistic reality.
Usually hidden, basic properties of speech appear in visual form before children who cannot read
: linearity - the temporal sequence of words
included in a sentence, and discreteness - separateness of the words
that make up a sentence.
There are prerequisites for the formation of reading skills in children in the future.
