Colourful semantics is an exciting language intervention that indirectly works on developing a child’s grammar through the use of:
•Spoken sentences
•Answering W/H questions
•Use of nouns, verbs, prepositions and adjectives
•Story telling skills
•Written sentences and language comprehension
Colourful semantics works particularly well in the special education classroom, helping students with difficulty in understanding language to compose sentences.
These worksheets are designed to give students support to develop writing and composition skills. The sentence strips at the top of each worksheet demonstrate the sentence structure.
