Sentence Builder: Christmas Edition | SEN

Christmas sentence-building worksheets for secondary SEN learners working from Early KS1 to KS2. Includes 8 age-respectful scenes and 32 differentiated writing activities.

This 43-page A4 PDF is designed for calm, low-preparation English and literacy lessons. Each Christmas scene is revisited at four clearly scaffolded levels, so a mixed-attainment class can share the same topic while producing achievable outcomes.

What’s included:

• 8 realistic, diverse Christmas scenes
• 32 pupil activities (8 scenes x 4 levels)
• Level 1: look, circle and write a supported sentence
• Level 2: complete a sentence, select a visible detail and rewrite
• Level 3: plan two visible ideas and join them with and
• Level 4: separate fact from inference and support ideas with evidence
• reusable write-on sentence board
• teacher quick guide, differentiation overview and print map
• model answers for every scene and level

Why it works for SEN:

• age-respectful visual design for secondary learners
• no cutting, loose pieces or complicated preparation
• large writing spaces and uncluttered page layouts
• choices can be read aloud; learners may circle, point, speak or write
• suitable for dry-wipe pockets or lamination
• progression broadly reflects Early KS1-KS2 literacy skills without presenting them as statutory levels

Useful for:

• SEN/SEND English
• Christmas literacy
• sentence construction
• differentiated writing
• intervention work
• morning work or independent tasks
• mixed-attainment secondary classes
