Constructed Sentences

Take each set of five words and turn them into THREE complete, grammatically correct sentences. Write a brief paragraph explaining how the words function in each constructed sentence.

Sample Words
chair pen printer purse will

Sample Sentence:

I will set the printer on the chair and get the pen out of my purse.

Sample Analysis:

“Will” works together with the verb, “set,” to form an action. “Printer” is the object of that action, which is performed by “I.” “Chair” is now part of a phrase—“upon the chair”—that tells where the action of setting occurs. “And” introduces a second action that parallels the first action in the sentence. “Pen” is the object of “get,” and the phrase “out of my purse” identifies where the pen will be gotten from.


Write a new set of THREE constructed sentences and analyses each day using the following word sets:

Day One Day Two Day Three Day Four Day Five
coffee banana even dog can
book never giraffe fall computer
set run laugh ice cool
