Stretching Sentences Resource

Includes a document with 3 double sided a4 sheets which I laminated and worksheet which I use as a resource for KS1 and KS2 children struggling to add detail to their writing.
These include images and suggestions for the ‘who, what, how, where, why’ parts of a sentence. There are blank spaces at the bottom of each table where a child or TA could write any extra ideas they have. They then take these ideas and use them on the activity sheet. This first column of this sheet is to be stuck in their book and the others to be cut to create flaps. Under each you ask the child to write a sentence, adding/stretching it each time. For example under ‘Who?’ The child may write ‘The small granny,’ then under then next flap ‘What?’ the child may write 'The small granny stretched her hand etc. until a detail sentence is formed. The third sheet which I laminated was a self-assessment to check they had included each in their sentence and as they others can also be used permanently in your literacy display.
I found this great to send home with spellings as they also force the child to practice their phonics and handwriting. My kids also loved writing some silly sentences with them. Enjoy!
