Ways to Extend This English Grammar Lesson

Solidify your students’ comprehension of nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs with these bonus activities for small groups or whole-class learning environments: 

• Pre-Lesson Activity – Assign this presentation as an independent task, either at home or before starting the lesson together as a group. Ask students to provide their own examples for each part of speech to assess their understanding. 
• Dissect the Sentences – Once students have selected the correct word for the question, review the other three words and decide which part of speech each represents. Additionally, practise sentence structure by taking other words out of the sentence to see whether it makes sense. What do they notice about nouns and verbs compared to adjectives and adverbs?
• Be the Teacher – As a post-lesson activity, ask students what they would put on a quiz if they were the teacher. Have your students create a 5-question quiz using the information in the presentation. Then direct them to trade papers with another student to take the quiz.

This resource downloads as a Microsoft PowerPoint or editable Google Slides file. You can select your preferred file via the dropdown menu on the Download button.
