Grade 1 and "les belles phrases"

At my school, our grade 1s practice making what we call "les belles phrases". As they learn more vocabulary over the year, they are able to "stretch" their sentences by adding more details. They also enjoy the challenge or seeing how long they can make them! 

We spent the last few weeks practicing fall vocabulary, prepositions, numbers, and colours. 

I made sheets with small pictures that the kids cut up so that they would each have their own ziploc bag of sentences squares. 

They are so proud of the sentences they make, and SO excited the share them with me :)

Next week we will be switching out the fall words for winter words!
