Sentence

Filling in a missing word is the first step from reading words to understanding sentences. Every box on these sheets has a picture and a short sentence with a blank line in it: A fish can ___. Under it are a few words to choose from. The child reads the sentence and each word, circles the one that fits and writes it on the line.

Only one word ever makes sense: a fish can swim, not bark or read. The picture helps, but the child still has to read the sentence to choose. The sentences use short everyday words, like the sun is hot and a car has four wheels. Set Choices to three words, or to two words for an easier sheet, and choose four or six sentences on a page.

The answer key gives every missing word. Press New sheet for new sentences. Every sheet prints in color or black and white, on US Letter or A4. Nothing to sign up for.
