Sentences

Overview

The student practices decoding skills in context with natural sentences that don’t use contrived language.

The sentence structure is tightly controlled for readability and so students should be able to read them easily.

Only one sentence appears on the screen at a time. The stars tell you how many sentences there are.

Sentences do not appear on every UofS page. See the UofS Sequence Map for where to find them.
