"Underline the noun with blue, circle the verb with red, draw a green box around the adjective...or was it the adverb?"
"Mrs. Cunningham, I can't find my yellow crayon!"
Well, I think I have found a more interesting way to practice this skill, more specifically, Education Place has found it (I just put a link to it on my website). The students enter in singular nouns, verbs, present tense verbs, etc. into the fields to make a goofy story; copy it into a blog post; and use Tux Paint to make a picture to go with it. Check out a sample here.
Bah! Maybe I'll give the little whipper snippers some worksheets on these skills next week!
