Day 2 and Day 4 Sentences

Write the following sentences on sentence strips. Either write each sentence in a different color or put each sentence on a different color of paper. Cut each sentence so that one word is on each line.

The cat ran.The dog sat.I ran fast.Sam fed the cat.Pam has a fan.The black cat sat on the tan hat. Bob will yell when he sees the flat hat.

Day 3 Silly Sentence Cards

Write the following sentence parts on sentence strips. Cut the strip so that it is the length of the sentence part. If you want put a sticker of the noun or draw a picture of the noun before the beginning of each beginning sentence part or after the period in each ending sentence part. I found sentence cards similar to this at a dollar store which could be used instead of making your own. The dog ate the banana.The mouse won the race.The fish lost his shirt.The airplane can hide.
