About this worksheet

A whole sentence tells who or what, and tells what happens. A kindergartner who can say it out loud is ready to write it, but the pencil has to keep up with the idea. On this page every item is a picture with two writing lines beside it, and the child writes one sentence about the picture. There are no choices to read: the child looks, says the sentence aloud, then writes it, starting with a capital letter and ending with a period.

Support sheets use clear, single-action pictures, and every sheet shows three different animals. Check the writing together afterwards: does the sentence start with a capital letter, have spaces between the words, and stop with a period? Do not worry about perfect spelling; sound out each word and write the sounds that are heard.
