In this 21-page no preparation pack of scaffolded sentences, we target the very common Subject-Verb-Adverb structure. Most typically developing children acquire this pattern at about the age of 24-30 months. But many people – including people learning English as a second language, and people with developmental language disorders, take longer and need practice to acquire it.
In this 22-page no-prep pack, we help students step up from simple sentence structures like Subject-Verb-Object structures (e.g. The boy kicked the ball.”) to a more complex structure:Â Subject-Verb-Object (indirect)-Object (direct), e.g. “The boy gave his mum flowers”.
This pattern works best with common verbs like “give” (and synonyms of “give”), “send”, “bring”, “cook” and “sing”. This no-preparation pack is designed to help support people who need help with these sentences, and features these verbs, as well as school, home and community vocabulary, to help stimulate oral language development, with pictures and words to scaffold the structure for students.
This 20-page no preparation pack is designed to provide people with structured practice using frequently used verbs and adjectives. With both picture cues and orthography, this pack can be used with people of all ages.
At around 3 years of age, typically developing children start to understand sentences containing the conjunction “but”.
In this 18-page no-prep pack, we introduce two friends who like different things. In addition to helping children to understand and to produce “but” sentences, this pack also promotes theory of mind development, starting with the fundamental idea that different people like different things.
Finally, basic categories (e.g. fruits, vegetables, actions) are used to stimulate semantic language development.
A perhaps stronger and more formal alternative to “but” is the compound conjunction “yet”. Although not used as frequently as “but” in casual conversation, “yet” is used commonly to contrast ideas in more formal speech (e.g. debating, speeches or presentations) and in persuasive writing.
In this 23-page no preparation pack, we demonstrate the use of “yet” as a conjunction to communicate contrast, with a variety of scaffolded sentences.
Featuring pictures and orthography, this pack is designed for people of all ages who need practice in using “yet” to improve their speech or writing (or both).
