What is a sentence frame?

A sentence frame is a pre-made sentence structure with some blanks or slots where students can fill in specific words or phrases. They are used to:

* Guide students in writing grammatically correct sentences.

* Provide a structure to help students organize their thoughts and ideas.

* Encourage students to use specific vocabulary and grammar patterns.

* Support students who are learning English as a second language.

Here are some examples of sentence frames:

Basic:

* I like to _____.

* My favorite ____ is _____.

* The ____ is _____.

More complex:

* Because ____, I ____.

* I think ____ is important because ____.

* One difference between ____ and ____ is ____.

* ____ is a problem because ____.

Sentence frames can be used in a variety of ways, such as:

* During writing activities: Students can use frames to practice writing different types of sentences.

* During reading activities: Students can use frames to summarize what they have read.

* During discussions: Students can use frames to express their opinions and ideas.

Sentence frames are a valuable tool for educators and students alike. They help students develop their writing skills and make learning more engaging.
