Writing with Clicker - Sentence Building 2
Use model sentences in pop-up grids
Use the principle of 'look-cover-write-check' by having the model sentence on a pop-up grid! Learners click on a button to view the pop-up, and must then close it before constructing the sentence themselves.
Match starters and endings
Use sentence starters and endings in the grid – match them together to build sentences!
Complete an extended piece of writing
A set of grids acts as scaffolding for a whole piece of writing – not just for each sentence! Each grid contains only a small selection of words, ensuring the learner isn’t overwhelmed. Simply move to the next grid to see words for the next part of the story!
Use both grids AND the keyboard
You can use both the grid and the keyboard to enter text into Clicker Writer. Use the grid to provide sentence starters and a vocabulary list – and you then enter any further text using the computer’s keyboard!
