Topics Covered

• Sequencing words
• Identifying statement, command, or question
• Filling in the blanks of an instructional text

• Rearranging words to make a sentence

Sequencing Words

• Use words like "first", "next", "then", and "finally" to show the order of events
• Examples: "First, I will eat breakfast. Then, I will brush my teeth."
• Sequencing words help us understand the sequence of events in a story or instructions

Identifying Statement, Command, or Question

• A statement is a sentence that tells us something (e.g. "I like ice cream.")
• A command is a sentence that tells us to do something (e.g. "Close the door!")
• A question is a sentence that asks us something (e.g. "What is your name?")
• We can identify the type of sentence by its ending and words used

Filling in the Blanks of an Instructional Text

• Instructional texts are used to give us directions or instructions
• Examples: recipes, DIY guides, and rules
• We need to fill in the blanks with the correct sequencing words and command verbs to make the instructions clear

Understanding End Marks

• Statements end with a period (.)
• Questions end with a question mark (?)
• We use the correct end mark to show the type of sentence

Rearranging Words to Make a Sentence

• We need to put the words in the correct order to make a sentence that makes sense
• Examples: "me my is name" can be rearranged to "My name is me."
