Friday our activity was Goofy Sentences from Games for Reading -- this game gives your child practice reading words and phrases, and give him an early taste for sentence structure and grammar.

• Sample sentences are provided in the book.
• Write 20 beginnings of sentences on strips of paper or card stock. (example: The little chair) Mix them up.
• Write 20 middle parts of sentences on strips of paper or card stock. (example: was there) Mix them up.
• Write 20 ending parts of sentences on strips of paper or card stock. (example: so I could sit.) Mix them up.
• Set out all three sets of cards. Let your child pick a card from each set and read the sentence.
• You will end up with silly sentences. One we really laughed at was "My cup barked while I ran away."
