Late Conjunctions Bundle

Language Unleashed: Late Conjunctions Bundle

This resource focuses on 7 more advanced and mature conjunctions: instead, if, unless, although, however, otherwise. We are calling these late conjunctions, as they are typically mastered at a later stage. We recommend choosing this resource if your learner has mastered earlier conjunctions (such as but, because, when, after) and is ready for the next challenge. This bundle is relevant to learners in upper primary and beyond. As conversations, stories and lessons become more complex, we need to ensure our learners can participate in full at every step.

When you purchase this resource you will receive:

• Detailed instructions to walk you through the tasks, including record sheets and handouts that you can share with others.
• Carry over tasks to support family, school and therapy to work together.
• Scripts to match 25 carefully chosen images for every conjunction. This means a high dosage and better outcomes for your learner. Every script focuses on use of the target conjunction in a complex sentence. These scripts build your learner’s skill to first repeat and then create these complex sentences.
• Extension activities and visuals including flashcards and conjunction bricks to make the tasks varied and multisensory.
• The evidence base: we explain in Plain English why this intervention works. Understand the 15 Principles of grammatical intervention (Fey et al 2003, Finestack et al 2023) and how we have applied these principles to Language Unleashed. We also explain how we have embedded implicit and explicit teaching, sentence imitation, praise, dosage, and cognitive load theory into our design.

“Language Unleashed offers a fabulous and dynamic learning opportunity for struggling learners.”
