Topic Sentences Sentence Stem Cards

About this printable

This resource is a single-page set of cut-apart sentence-stem cards labelled 1–12 that give short, colour-coded starters for topic sentences (e.g. 'This paragraph is about ____.' 'Ultimately, the text shows that ____'). Use it to scaffold students who need a prompt for summarising, main-idea statements or topic sentence drafting. The stems are concise and designed for quick retrieval during guided reading, writing planning or partner talk.
