Expanding Sentences

Directions: I will show you a picture. Then I will ask you one question at a

time about the picture. Each time you answer a question, we will add it to

our sentence to make our sentence expand, or become longer.

Note: There may be variations in the sentences created by your class.

Allow for these variations and restate students’ sentences so that they

are grammatical. Repeat each sentence for the students. If necessary,

ask students to repeat your sentence.
