$GRAMMAR Build a Sentence
ID: l1-s15
INTRO: A sentence machine: pick a subject, a verb, and a time of day. Every combination works.
CARD: Combine a subject, a verb, and a time expression to make your own sentences.
{We eat at noon.}
{They study in the evening.}
CARD: The negative works the same way — just add **don't** or **doesn't**.
{I don't sleep at night.}
{She doesn't swim at midnight.}
SUMMARY:
| Subject | Verb Phrase | Time Expression |
|---|---|---|
| I / We / They / You | (don't) eat / sleep / swim / study / drink | in the morning / in the afternoon / in the evening |
| He / She | (doesn't) eat / sleep / swim / study / drink | at night / at midnight / at noon |
# Source: ST §We Eat at Noon (sentence-table practice; cues added to scaffold production)
$PRODUCE Your Turn: Build Sentences
ID: l1-s16
REFERENCE: l1-s15
INTRO: Now run the sentence machine yourself. Use the cue words to say a full sentence — the table is one tap away. A cue with "not" means make it negative.
INSTRUCTION: Say a sentence using the cue words.
INPUT: speak
CHECK: llm
RUBRIC: Accept any grammatically correct present simple sentence built from the cue words (subject + verb + time expression); "not" in the cue means the sentence must be negative with "don't"/"doesn't". Correct third-person "-s" is the point — a wrong verb form fails. Small additions like an object ("coffee") are fine.
EXAMPLE
TEMPLATE: you / swim / afternoon
RESPONSE: You swim in the afternoon.
TEMPLATE: we / eat / noon
RESPONSE: We eat at noon.
TEMPLATE: they / study / evening
RESPONSE: They study in the evening.
TEMPLATE: he / drink coffee / morning
RESPONSE: He drinks coffee in the morning.
TEMPLATE: I / not sleep / night
RESPONSE: I don't sleep at night.
TEMPLATE: she / not swim / midnight
RESPONSE: She doesn't swim at midnight.
