Sentence Scramble
Learn English sentences, CVC words, and some phonics with this fun English sentence and word game.
Welcome to Sentence Scramble - the English Sentence game.
Helping young learners move from learning their ABC's and CVCs and starting to use these words in mixed up sentences. it helps to practice blending and sentence construction with this simple English word game.
This educational app contains simple and more complex sentences that they have to rearrange to their correct form.
Simple sentences are mixed up and children and students are asked to move the words till they spell these sentences correctly.They star with very simple three words sentences and move up to six and 7 word sentences. These are more complex so there are fewer of them. This app is designed to help reinforce sentence construction and English grammar rules in a fun way. It is also on my website so it can be played as a quick break in classrooms if there are not enough tablets.
It can be used to help with spelling strategies, including sounding out, picture recognition, phonics and subject verb object forms and use of adjectives
in this game i have included 3 versions:
Countdown: a 60 second initial timer where the student tries to do as many words as they
can in time. This allows classrooms with less access to technology to take turns easier. It also has bonus time if they can complete each level in time.
Pictures Round: There are 50 sentences with picture clues to try to help them if they are having difficultly, the visuals also help young learners who are not ready for just words yet.
Word hints: There is a short word hint if the question mark is pressed that may help if the children or students are struggling.
I am an English teacher and teach literacy, reading strategies and phonics to young learners. The easiest way is to use games and make lessons fun. This app has been tried on my own students in their reading and phonics lessons and it makes reading much easier when they are engaged and motivated.
Teaching phonics can be more than just flashcards with apps like these you can watch all your students play learn and have fun at the same time!
Although made for ESL ( English as Second language) it can be used for any grade of students who need a little help or boost.
Any questions drop me an email, also any feedback is welcome so I can improve and make more!

Hello dude, I really liked your game and I am trying to create similar game for German. I know just a little bit about game development, is there any ways to contact you in private and you help me about creation of this game. It would be even cooler if you gave me the source code for the game. Thank you a lot. Please help me....
Is this Sentence game modifiable so that I can enter the vocabulary that my students are studying ? Thank you. Nice work.
Hiyah,
Thanks for the praise, it really helps to know its useful!
I will take a look and see how easy it is to implement as it is a good idea, ( I am just a teacher though so not sure how easy/difficult it will be)
Could you tell me how you spotted my game? Just wondering how people find it
Thanks
Marc
Hi Marc ! Thank you for your response. I simply did a Google search using the terms "Sentence scrabble" or something similar. Please let me know what you learn. It sure would be helpful if it was modifiable.
Thank you again,
