Are you looking for a comprehensive solution to help your students with their sentence writing and construction skills? Look no further than the Sentence Sidekick Bundle! Many students struggle with writing due to a lack of connection between oral and written language. As a result, teachers report that their students need significant support to complete written work in class. This not only affects their grades but also their confidence and ability to communicate effectively.

As an SLP, you try to make every therapy session count, but you may be missing a crucial link between oral and written language. Without a solid understanding of sentence structure and construction, students will struggle to express themselves effectively in writing. 

That's where the Sentence Sidekick comes in!

The Parts of Speech to Simple Sentence Sidekick provides a fun and interactive way to teach students the different parts of speech, including nouns, verbs, and adjectives. By applying this knowledge in a structured manner, students will be able to build and write sentences with confidence.

The Conjunctions and Compound Sentences Sidekick takes things to the next level by teaching students how to combine sentences using conjunctions.  It systematically guides students from learning 12 commonly used conjunctions and then applying the knowledge in a functional and structured manner.

The Complex Sentences Sidekick takes the guess work out of addressing higher level syntax and grammar by teaching students how to combine dependent and independent clauses using conjunctions and punctuation in a meaningful way.  It systematically guides students from learning the basics of these clause types and then applying the knowledge in a functional and structured manner to create complex sentences.
