Expanding Sentences and Elaboration Practice - BOOM CARDS by BVG SLP

Support expressive language with this 50-card Boom Cards activity for expanding sentences and elaboration. Full-color images and drag-and-drop interaction provide immediate feedback as students move from guided practice toward more independent written and verbal responses.

The lesson provides practice with expanding utterances and vocabulary. Open-ended responses allow for varied answers and should be reviewed by the clinician or educator for accuracy. The resource can be used as a companion to a broader guide for teaching sentence expansion.
