Word order in sentences — English writing skills for kids

Writing tip

Doer first — “an English sentence goes: who, the action, what, then where or when”

1. Start with WHO does it (Sneha).
2. Then the ACTION (feeds), then WHAT (the cat), then WHERE or WHEN (every morning).
3. In a wh-question: question word → is → the person → the -ing word: Where is Riya going?

Use it for: Making sentences from jumbled words — a favourite school exercise — and speaking clearly.

Worked example: Which sentence has the words in the correct order? → Sneha feeds the cat every morning.
