Sentence Maker Free

Sentence Maker teaches users how to correctly order words to make phrases and sentences. To do so, Sentence Maker first shows users a picture, a list of words that describe the picture (in random, non-sensible order), and blank spaces for placing words. Sentence Maker then orally says a phrase or sentence that uses all of the words and relates to the picture. In response, users are to organize the listed words into the correct phrase or sentence by using the blank spaces provided. If users need to hear the phrase or sentence again, they can tap the green “redo” button. Once the sentence has been correctly formulated, verbal reinforcement and praise is given. Lastly, users can customize Sentence Maker by specifying the length of phrases or sentences, choosing the words to be included, changing fonts, and selecting game sounds.

Instructional Ideas

1. Teachers can use Sentence Maker to instruct students to create proper sentences within the app. Following, students can write their sentences on paper, while ensuring the use of appropriate capitalization and punctuation.
2. Although the sentences in Sentence Maker are very basic with few adjectives, teachers can use this app to teach students how to use adjectives by instructing students to insert adjectives into the phrase or sentence that further describe the picture.
3. When Sentence Maker uses a phrase instead of a complete sentence, students can be instructed to formulate a complete sentence that includes all the words from the phrase.
4. To increase comprehension, teachers can have students turn the sound off as they work in pairs to determine the correct order of the words. Upon the correct formulation of a sentence or phrase, students can take turns reading it to one another.
5. Teachers can use Sentence Maker for an activity to review parts of speech. Once students correctly order a phrase or sentence as intended by the app, they can then be instructed to write the phrase or sentence down and label the different parts of speech.
