How to Set Up the Ocean Silly Sentences
One of these days I will finally get a video together showing everyone how to put together the dice. They’re not that hard but the first time or two they can be time consuming. I’ve managed to get the time down significantly though since we use dice so much!
Anyway, I’d recommend printing the dice on regular paper unless you plan on using them a whole lot. Ours easily last for a good round or two of silly sentences. Anything more and I’d consider using cardstock instead.
How to Play with Ocean Roll a Sentence
While I consider these educational printables, we play with them. It’s more of a game to us. We try to find the silliest sentence we can come up with. Some of the versions provide more education than others.
The Ocean one has been good because we’ve been able to provide some scientific context. Like “Do crabs really hang out in ocean trenches?” or “Do sharks actually glitter?”.
But mostly my plan for them is to practice reading. I don’t go out of my way to include specific words but through the nature of reading, they pick up more and more.
These could also be used for writing practice! You could have your child write the sentence on a piece of paper and turn it into a story or use it for a drawing prompt.
