alphabet sentence HELP!!!
 
Hello to this wonderful community!

I�ve got to teach the alphabet and spelling tomorrow and I know there are sentences that contain all the letters in the alphabet.
Would anybody have some examples for me, please?

I�ve got one that only misses the "s".

The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog.

Thanks for your help!!! Smile

Thanks Zora-f,

as I�ve got a big class I think it would be better to have more than one sentence like that.

Additional ideas are more than welcome! Thanks!

I typed "sentences containing all the letters of the alphabet" in the Google Search bar and there were many sites. These sentences are also called pangrams, you may want to type �pangram� to see what you can find!
http://forum.wordreference.com/showthread.php?t=497376 (for pangrams in other languages!)
 
I found your sentence, but in the present tense, so there is an S in it!
