Connectives and conjunctions.

Please refer to your child’s speech and language targets to see which connectives they are working on.

The Leeds Community Healthcare NHS Trust have produced a downloadble pdf full of games and ideas:

https://www.leedscommunityhealthcare.nhs.uk/our-services-a-z/child-speech-and-language-therapy/speech-and-language-therapy-toolkit-new-/expressive-language/

Select the ‘Expressive Language’ drop down menu and click on connectives.

Humber Teaching NHS Foundation Trust have also produced a pdf:

https://www.humber.nhs.uk/services/childrens-language-resources.htm

Select the pdf entitled ‘ Pack for conjunctions-connectives.’

If your child’s target is to include a wider range of connectives in their speech (i.e. those children who are familiar with connectives but now need to remember to use them) there are many resources available on Discovery Espresso. See the Learning Links section on the Peters Hill website, click on Espresso and then search for ‘Comic Strips.’ Children can create their own story using a comic strip.
