SENTENCES—LETTER BY LETTER
Each sentence will have as many words as there are letters in the word after the number. The
first word starts with the word’s first letter, the next word begins with the second letter, the
third word with the third letter, and so on. Thus, if the word is Comb, a possible sentence
could be “Can our match begin?” Only one proper noun is allowed per sentence, and the
sentence or question should make sense. After you have finished these ten, you might make up some of your own for your classmates.

BY THE LETTERS
Each set of letters indicates how you are to write the sentences in this activity. The words in
each sentence must begin with the specific letters and in that order only. Thus, if the letters
are T t p t t n h, the sentence could read “Take this package to the next house.” Be sure to pay
attention to the capital letters and punctuation. Write your sentences on the lines provided or
on another sheet of paper. Good luck!
