Make a sentence

Put jumbled words in order to make a sentence that starts and ends properly.

A sentence tells you one whole thing. The words have to stand in the right order for it to make sense.

Two ends

Every sentence begins with a capital letter and ends with a full stop. Those two marks show you where it starts and where it stops.

Worked example

Jumbled: dog. / big / a / is / It

  1. Find the word with the capital letter. That is 'It'.

    The capital letter always goes first.

Try it together

Let's build one together: cat / The / sleeps.

    1.Which word goes first?

    Have a go

    Have a go. Which one is in the right order?
