What is the Sentence Building Toolkit resource?

This resource is a Sentence Building Toolkit designed to help children develop their writing skills by learning how different word classes work together to form sentences.

It uses colour-coded word types (such as nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, conjunctions, and prepositions) to make grammar clear, visual, and easy to understand. Children begin by creating simple sentences and then gradually improve them by adding more detail and complexity.

How can the resources be used?

This resource can be used in a variety of flexible and creative ways to support children’s sentence-building skills across the curriculum. It can be easily adapted by teachers to suit different topics, age groups, and learning needs.

You can edit the resource to include subject-specific vocabulary, such as science, history, or geography terms, helping children apply their sentence-building skills in different contexts. The resource can be adapted for KS1 and KS2 learners by simplifying or extending the range of word classes and vocabulary used.
