  • AFTER Sentence builder

    (L244) Sentence Builders: “After”

    $5.99 including GST

    One reason “after” is difficult to understand in sentences is that, sometimes, the sequence of events described does not match the word order of the sentence, e.g. “Put on your jacket after you put on your shoes”. Many people with language difficulties use a strategy of doing things in the order they are named.

    In this 18-page language workout, we provide lots of examples of “after” in familiar routines, presented chronologically to emulate a simple narrative.

    We have elected to use “after” as a conjunction (rather than as a preposition, adverb or adjective) to stimulate complex sentence development. We have used pictures as well as the words to support people with different strengths and skill levels.
