Let’s solve the first card step by step.
We are given these words:
boy,
The,
is,
wearing,
a,
shirt.,
blue
Step 1: Look for the subject — who is the sentence about?
→ “The boy” makes sense as the start of the sentence.
Step 2: What is the boy doing?
→ He “is wearing” something.
Step 3: What is he wearing?
→ “a blue shirt.” (Note: “blue” describes the shirt, so it goes before “shirt”)
Step 4: Put it all together in order:
“The boy is wearing a blue shirt.”
Check: Does this make a full, correct sentence? Yes.
Does it use all the words? Let’s check:
- The
