Naughty Bus Sentence Support Tools

Bring story-based learning to life with this engaging Naughty Bus Sentence Building Activity Pack! Inspired by the popular story Naughty Bus, this hands-on resource helps children develop sentence construction, vocabulary, and early writing skills using colourful picture cards and sentence-building strips.

Children can create simple and expanded sentences by selecting a character, action, location, and object. With cards featuring characters such as the Naughty Bus, rescue truck, driver, little boy, and dog, alongside a range of actions, places, and objects, pupils can build imaginative sentences while reinforcing key grammar concepts.

The included sentence-building strips provide progressive scaffolding, allowing children to construct:
