Synopsis

This hands-on manual is intended for speech/language pathologists or teachers working with young children in preschool, kindergarten or primary grades who are helping students to learn to talk in sentences. Over 50 syntax elements are presented on two pages, a picture page for the student and a guide page for teachers. Students become familiar with the same 14 characters who are shown throughout the book and named in the sentence targets. Teachers become comfortable using the same basic format for each lesson. Best of all, lessons result in students generating their own correctly formulated sentences! Students will construct sentences using subject/verb subject/verb/object descriptive phrases adverb phrases contractions various verb tenses conditional clauses indirect objects and much, much more Here’s how it works: Each lesson: Introduce target in conversational sentences Model the target in receptive language tasks Prompt a student by giving a starting point of and the content within each sentence Reinforce a student's use of targets in less structured, conversational sentences talking about their own experiences
