I've been busy working on my calendar for the upcoming school year and trying to to do a lot of planning. At some point I decided that outer space would be a good theme, have you done that one before?
I just finished some activities a couple of days ago and am so excited to share! I have never done an outer space theme before and I'm not sure why… But I created a few activities focused on parts of speech.
First, we have adjectives…
You know me and my love of super easy board games! This one has one adjective on each star. As the student rolls the dice, they must put the word in a sentence to describe a noun. You can easily target describing and nouns, as well as sentence structure.
Planet Noun is the last activity I made for sorting various nouns by person, place, or thing. This is good for working on categories also! Included are 24 spaceships with nouns…8 for each planet. Students just fly the spaceship to the correct planet.
Also included in the packet are follow up assignments for each activity! For adjectives, there is a mini book for the students to list examples of adjectives for color, size, shape, taste, touch, and amount. For parts nouns, a chart to fill in nouns by person, place, and thing. All of these activities are meant to reinforce the skills targeted. You could do these as a end of session wrap up, as a follow up in a different session, or send them home for practice!
The Galaxy Grammar language pack is available in my TPT Store!
