Sentence Diagramming Bell Ringers: Weeks 1-16 BUNDLE
By Ms. J's ELA
These sentence diagramming bell ringers will last four full months. This bundle contains sixteen Google Slide presentations- one for each week. There is also an assessment for the end of week four, the end of week seven, the end of week twelve, and the end of week 16 to test student knowledge. The daily activities should last 5-10 minutes. EVERYTHING IS EDITABLE.
THIS BUNDLE COVERS:
- Subject
- Predicate / Verb
- Helping Verbs
- Articles
- Adjectives
- Adverbs
- Prepositions
- Adjectival Prepositional Phrases
- Adverbial Prepositional Phrases
- Coordinating Conjunctions
- Compound Sentences

- Compound Adjectives and Adverbs
- Compound Prepositional Phrases
- Linking Verbs
- Predicate Adjectives
- Predicate Nominatives
- Transitive Verbs
- Direct Objects
- Indirect Objects
Answers are included for all diagrams.
Sentence diagramming is so helpful when teaching students parts of speech and sentence structure. The repetitiveness of diagramming for a bell ringer is extremely beneficial for students. I tried grammar workbooks for years, but my students hardly retained anything. Daily sentence diagramming made them remember their parts of speech, and was an amazing foundation for my students to have when we started forming different types of sentences. They picked up on fixing run-ons quickly as well because of their diagramming foundation.
