 How can we form a sentence can/ can’t/ could/ couldn’t:

Subject + can/ can’t/ could/ couldn’t + verb + .

E.g. He can read.

 The king of handwriting

- Start with a capital letter.

- Keep finger spacing.

- Put a full stop at the end of a sentence.

 Rearrange to form correct sentence:

Can’t –They – a story. – write

They can’t write a story.

 Rearrange to form correct question:

couldn’t –study – She – yesterday.

She couldn’t study yesterday.
