Sentence Building Set

Sentence Building Set

Support communication, answer WH questions and build meaningful sentences with our engaging Sentence Building Set, inspired by the Colourful Semantics approach.

Designed to make communication and language development visual, interactive and engaging, this resource helps users develop sentence structure, comprehension, expressive language and confidence when communicating with others.

The Colourful Semantics approach, created by Alison Bryan, uses colour-coded sentence structures to help users understand the role and meaning of words within a sentence. It is widely used by speech pathologists, educators and allied health professionals to support language development, sentence building and WH questions.

The colour-coded sentence structure includes:

🟧 WHO
🟨 WHAT DOING
🟩 WHAT
🟦 WHERE

Perfect for supporting:

• WH questions
• Sentence building
• Expressive language
• Receptive language
• Communication skills
• Sequencing and comprehension
• Conversation skills
• Building confidence when communicating with others

How To Use

Simply display a photo, picture book image, printed visual or an image on an iPad, tablet or computer alongside the sentence strip. Using the colour-coded visuals, the user selects the appropriate symbols to describe what they can see, answer WH questions and build sentences step-by-step.

The interchangeable WH visuals allow beginners to start with fewer sentence components and gradually expand as their skills develop. The removable symbols can also be rearranged to introduce more advanced sentence structures, including describing words.

⭐ Optional Personalised Photo Symbol

For a more personalised experience, an optional custom photo symbol featuring the user can be added to the set.

When used alongside personal photos, this allows the user to include themselves when building sentences using the colour-coded sentence structure. This can help support conversations about familiar people, places and activities using the symbols included in the resource.

🎉 BONUS 100-Page Digital Visuals Pack Included

Every Sentence Building Set includes a huge 100-page downloadable PDF Visuals Pack, featuring over 100 engaging people, animals, actions and places designed to correspond with the symbols included in this resource.

These fun, realistic visuals have been specifically created to encourage engagement while supporting sentence building, WH questions and communication.

The digital visuals can be:

• Displayed on an iPad, tablet or computer
• Printed for hands-on activities
• Used alongside books, photos and therapy activities
• Used to support sentence building and WH questions
• Perfect for home, school and therapy settings
