Y3 Connectives

 

I woke early because

 

the sun shone on my face.

 

I ate my breakfast while

 

my mother fed the baby.

 
I got dressed after

 

I had my shower.

 

I left for school as soon as

 

I was ready.

 

I was late for school although

 

I had left on time.

 

I wondered if

 

my teacher would be angry.

 

I've only been late once since

 

I joined this class.

 

I walked in quietly and

 

sat down at the back.

 

The teacher smiled so

 

I knew I wasn't in trouble.

 

It was OK this time but

 

it won't happen again.

Task could be extended by sequencing.

Individual connective cards could be used to alter given examples or to write own.
