Scrambled Sentences - Read, Write, and Draw October Sampler

By Sassycat Corner

Halloween and fall fun with scrambled sentences! Scrambled sentences are a great way to practice capitalization, comprehension, fluency, content, sight words, content words and punctuation! And with this Halloween & fall themed sentence scramble sampler pack, it's also fun! Students read, cut & paste, write, and draw with each sentence.

This is a SAMPLER pack. It has FOUR themed pages, one each from October's theme - spiders, bats, pumpkins, and Halloween. It also has two blank pages that you can hand write your own sentences onto.

If you like the sampler, and want the full packs, just follow the links below under the bundle tab. They lead to both the October bundle, and the individual sets.

For each set, there are 10 pages with an eight word sentence, plus punctuation at the bottom of each page. You also get 5 blank templates that you can hand write your own sentences onto, if you want harder or easier sentences. You and your students read the words together, then cut them apart. Students then arrange them into sentence form and glue them into the boxes at the top. Students can then write the sentence on the handwriting line provided, then illustrate the sentence in the box provided. Finally, students can practice fluency by reading the sentences to each other or to the teacher.

These were made originally for seat work for a first grade friend, but I have a fellow kindergarten teacher who is using it in a small group with her high students. These would be good from K-2 in teacher led small groups, intervention, enrichment, or independent seat work, depending upon their reading / writing abilities.
