And somehow you have to teach all of them to write complete sentences by the end of the year.  Am I right?

"This is the perfect resource for working on sentences! Students are able to come up with a sentence based on a pre-drawn picture which alleviated the stress of coming up with an idea on their own. They have been engaged in writing and I have seen their writing improve each day. They now say, "are we writing a five-star sentence?". I can not recommend this resource enough!"
Amanda M.
"I love this resource - it is perfect for my kindergarten students in their begining writing stage! I appreciate the differentiated prompts that can be inclusive of all students. And my class enjoys their writing time with these. Thank you!"
