This 20-page packet is a fun way to target sentence formulation with a fun monster theme!
To Play:
- Mix and match to create mighty monster sentences. Once a student has a complete sentence formed, you can experiment with word order. “Can you put the ‘when’ card last?” “What about the ‘who’ card?”
- The last sheet can be used as homework, or for your students to practice creating their own sentences!
Additionally, in this packet, I’ve included Reflect! question cards (8). These encourage your students to reflect on if their sentences make sense, if they are realistic, how the monster in the story might feel, to create a narrative based on their sentences, and more!
Included:
- 20 ‘who’ cards with monsters (10 have silly names and 10 are left blank for your students to come up with their own names!)
- 28 ‘what’ cards with actions on them (ex: burped)
- 24 ‘where’ cards with places on them (ex: in a tree house)
- 8 ‘when’ cards (ex: yesterday)
- 24 ‘why’ cards (ex: because that’s what monsters do)
- 1 visual/mat
- Google Slides™️ version for teletherapy or digital sessions
- 1 homework page/worksheet
- 8 Reflect! cards (ex: Tell a story about the monster in your sentence.)

Compared to other sentence building activities, I love the addition of the “reflect” cards to help kids think more about their sentences.

And the graphics are cute but not so “babyish” that they aren’t appropriate for middle school
