Description: The desert animals need your help again! They have practised their sentences, and want to have a go at making their own to send to their friends. Can you help them by creating your own messages? Desert Decisions allow children to learn all about sentence construction in a fun environment! This deck has 10 cards where children are asked to pick a picture, then make their own sentence about it with a 'subject' (who?), a 'verb' (doing what?), and an 'object' (what?). It is intended that the sentence can either be accurate to the picture, or a silly sentence not entirely related to the picture. This was done to offer a teaching opportunity on incorrect syntax in a fun way. A child will quickly master SVO sentence building using Desert Decisions!
