Less than $5 Middle School Grammar Activities

Scattegories is a fun and challenging board game that tests your creativity and quick thinking. I have recreated a classroom version for SPANISH LEARNERS called: ¡PÁREME LA MANO! also called in other countries, TUTTI FRUTI o PARA EL FUEGO. This is a fun game we used to play in school growing up in South America. I have tried in my own classroom and kids LOVE IT! This is such a great game to practice vocabulary and parts of the speech.

This product contains two versions of this game. One for individual play and one for a group game. There are a set of rules for both games but these are just suggested rules as you can set your own depending of the group of kids you teach. Kids will only need a dice, a white board marker and a wiper.

Learning new vocabulary doesn't have to be a dry and boring task! This engaging "Donut Delight" activity sheet transforms vocabulary exploration into a fun and interactive experience for your students.

What's Included?
OPTION #1: Fillable Donut Template: This printable features a delicious-looking donut with designated sections for students to record:

• Word
• Synonym
• Antonym
• Definition

OPTION #2: Cut-and-Paste Option: An additional sheet provides a donut outline that students can cut out and decorate.

Mettry's Tip:

• Laminate the completed donut sheets for durability and create a classroom vocabulary word wall. This allows for collaborative vocabulary exploration and reinforcement.
• Use the donut sheets as a springboard for class discussions about synonyms, antonyms, and sentence construction.
• Compile the completed donut sheets throughout the year to create a personalized vocabulary booklet for each student.

Fun game to practice present perfect. This is my go-to game when I need to drill some grammar into my students. It's by far the most efficient grammar game. I love it because it's no prep, just PRINT AND GO. And my students love it because it doesn't feel like learning when, in fact, they do a TON of learning. We can easily spend the whole lesson playing battleship and they still want to play even after the bell rings.

It's also a great activity for substitute lessons or when I'm in a time press and don't have much time to prepare for a lesson.

How to play:

• It can be played in pairs or in small teams
• Hide your ships in the left field. They mustn't touch.
• Try to hit the enemy ships in the right field.
• If your enemy hits your ship, indicate that in the left field. If you hit your enemy's ship, mark it down in the right field. If you miss, mark it down as well. If you hit your enemy's ship, have another go.
• To win, sink all of your enemy's ships before he sinks yours.

Contains:

• detailed instructions
• 1 battleship sheet
• student sheet contains simplified instructions

The sheet focuses on:

• present perfect - affirmative and negative sentences, questions

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

Four puzzles (crossword, maze, word search, double puzzle) with solutions that use St. Patrick's Day vocabulary. Fun reinforcement for vocabulary or to celebrate the Irish holiday!

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.

*These bell ringers are part of a larger bundle of resources.*

https://www.TeachShare.com/Product/Sentence-Diagramming-Bell-Ringers-Weeks-1-16-BUNDLE-9889785

These sentence diagramming bell ringers will last a full month. This resource contains four Google Slide presentations- one for each week. There is also an assessment for the end of those four weeks to test student knowledge. The daily activities should last 5-10 minutes.

This resource covers:

- Subject

- Predicate / Verb

- Helping Verbs

- Articles

- Adjectives

- Adverbs

Answers are included for all diagrams.

My bell ringers are color-coded. Red slides should be covered on Monday, yellow on Tuesday, green on Wednesday (missing from preview), blue on Thursday, and purple on Friday.

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.
