Are you looking for fun ways to help your Kindergarteners practice building sentences? Sentence strips are a popular Montessori language activity that can provide valuable practice in constructing simple and complex sentences.
Not only do sentence strips challenge students’ grammar skills but they can also be used to bolster writing skills too! In this blog post, we’ll explore how teachers and parents can create sentence strips together with their students that are both engaging and educational!
My son is in Montessori Kindergarten. He has blown through all my Montessori language materials for pink, blue, and green levels. So, I decided to create new Language Activities for Kindergarten for him, which brought me to this kindergarten sentences activity.
Kindergarten Sentences
These 24-sentence strips have a nature theme. I included an image to go with each sentence. The child can match the image to the sentence for the first basic work.
