This Grade 1 worksheet helps young learners develop strong sentence-making skills by unscrambling jumbled words to form meaningful sentences. Children learn how correct word order creates clear meaning, while colourful picture cues make the activity fun and intuitive. Through matching, choosing correct answers, rewriting with spacing, and drawing, the worksheet builds early grammar confidence, reading ability, and writing fluency.
Unscrambling sentences trains children to understand sentence structure and meaning. For Grade 1 learners, this topic is important because:
1. It teaches the natural order of words in English sentences.
2. It strengthens comprehension by connecting pictures with text.
3. It improves writing by reinforcing spacing and correct word placement.
4. It prepares young learners for more advanced writing tasks.
The worksheet includes four interactive activities:
