Description
Your English learners will have fun building negative sentences with "don't" and "doesn't" in this interactive grammar game. To play the game, they will need to drag and drop the word tiles to form sentences that describe the silly pictures. Each sentence contains four to seven words that follow a consistent pattern: subject + doesn't / don't + main verb + complement. There are plenty of sentences with both "doesn't" and "don't" to keep students on their toes. Each sentence is illustrated to support reading comprehension and vocabulary acquisition. The colorful pictures represent a variety of bizarre situations that are sure to make kids laugh out loud. The slides are presented in random order. Children will have a different experience each time they play! I regularly use digital sentence scrambles to review grammar concepts with my students. They enjoy seeing the pictures, moving the word tiles, and getting instant feedback. I find that the sentences scramble format is a great bridge between receptive and productive language use. It gives them the structured experience that they need to confidently use the language in conversation.
