Grammar Bingo

Create bingo cards with grammar elements like nouns, verbs, and adjectives. Call out a sentence, and the child must identify the correct part of speech on their bingo card to mark it.

Grammar Scavenger Hunt

Make a list of grammar elements to find around the house, like finding an object with a noun or a sign with a verb. Kids race to find and identify the items.

Sentence Scramble

Write words on separate cards and mix them up. Have your child arrange them to form a correct sentence, then identify the parts of speech.

Story Starters

Give your child a story starter with a focus on a particular grammar rule. Have them continue the story while including specific parts of speech or sentence structures.

Grammar Pictionary

In this twist on Pictionary, kids draw sentences based on grammar prompts, like “Draw a sentence with an adjective.” Others guess the sentence and identify the parts of speech.
