This is the seventh in our series of sentence builders, focusing on Subject-Verb-Object-Adverbial Phrase constructions, e.g. “The boy ate an apple in the kitchen.”

Typically developing children usually acquire this sentence structure at around the age of 30-36 months, although people who are learning English as a second language and/or have a communication disorder may struggle to grasp the pattern.

This 9-page no-preparation pack is designed to help support people who need help with these sentences, and features high frequency, present tense verbs to help stimulate oral language development.
