6th Grade Grammar Activities (by date, oldest first)

Learning the Parts of Speech for High School and Middle School - while this might one of those building blocks for lower levels, students still need a refresher.

Why is this important?

• Common Vocabulary - When talking about the structure of a sentence, students and teachers need a common vocabulary.
• Improve student writing - when students see how adverbs and adjectives create vivid sentences, you can prompt them to work them in.
• Structure Matters - when talking about what's wrong with a sentence, we have to examine the elements that go into it.

What's Included:

• Powerpoint Lesson covering the basics
• Guided Student Lecture Notes during the lesson
• In-Class Games
• Anchor Charts for Class & Notebooks
• 3 Pages of Practice
• 2 Student Activities are digital
• 1 Quiz (PDF & Google)
• Gimkit & Kahoot Templates for easy uploading
• Tips for teaching ELLs/EBs

Students practice their editing skills and have some fun along the way! They will all connect with how one comma changes the meaning of a sentence in the funniest way.

19 tweets, signs, and one magazine cover are included in this fun-filled student activity that will have your kids thinking about how they write online.

Editing skills they practice through the activity include:

• Commas
• Apostrophes
• Capitalization
• Appositives
• Run on sentences
• Colons and more!

Looking for a fun way to engage your students? Look no further. Our Parts of Speech Escape Room has students going through all 8 parts of speech recognizing definitions, examples, and usage. This is a group activity which provides an excellent review for an exam or simply as a review.

This is a good interactive power point on sentence structure, namely simple, compound, complex, and compound-complex. It comes complete with explanations, activities to have the students name the structure, and ends with students making their own sentences.

These are fake Instagram posts that have pictures of activities. One post shows the activity happening in the present and the other post shows the activity either finished or happening in the past. The teacher will need to cut out the Instagram posts and the text boxes. Then the students will need to place the descriptions (inside the text boxes) with the correct Instagram post. The majority of the practice with this activity is focused on past tense, but there is also present and future tense.

**An extension for the activity is to have the students underline and identify the verb that shows the tense of the sentence.**

This can be used for multiple grade levels and would be a great support activity for upper elementary and middle school students who need practice with verb tenses (especially past tense).

I hope you enjoy it. Please rate and review.

Description:

• This is a group activity to help students practice using correct punctuation when using quotation marks. It is meant to be printed and each task card cut out. Then each group of students should be given their own copy of the task cards. The students will sort the incorrect cards apart from the correct cards in a set amount of time. This activity assesses not only that the quotation marks are in the correct place but also the following punctuation: question marks, exclamation marks, periods, and commas.

Included:

• 12 task cards (6 incorrect and 6 correct)
• An instruction slide
• Answer key/Guide

Your feedback is appreciated!

Perfect for a quick review!
