Grammar Practice & Assess Teacher’s Guide


Thank you so much for your purchase! This resource is jam-packed with content specifically designed to practice and assess the lessons in the Interactive Grammar Notebook. So that these printables are grade-level appropriate, I am releasing three sets: Set 1 – Grades 4-5 (Level A) Set 2 – Grade 6 (Level B) Set 3 – Grades 7-8 (Level C) Each set includes unique content, which means that the questions and passages are all completely different, and leveled, for each packet. If you differentiate in your grammar classes, I highly recommend that you purchase all 3 sets. Sets 2 and 3 will be released in the month of December. A bundle is available to purchase all 3 sets.

For each lesson, there is a 20-item practice, followed by a 20-item assessment. The items on the assessment are similar in content and in format to the items on the practice so that your students are prepared for each assessment.

Many lessons are 2 pages, so I run them front and back and recommend that you do the same whenever possible.

Since there are 3 sets and two similar worksheets for each lesson (one practice and one assessment), I have included this information at the bottom right corner of each page It either reads Practice or Assessment, followed by the level. The lesson number and topic are always at the top left. The protocol is the same among the different worksheet sets.

Level A: Grades 4-5

Grammar Practice & Assess FAQ Will these worksheets teach the lessons for me? No. These printables are meant to be used after the lesson is taught in order to practice and then assess students knowledge and understanding of the content or skill. The Interactive Grammar Notebook includes lessons for each skill. This packet includes worksheets for each.

Will I need to find stories and other resources to use with these printables? No! These are no-prep, which means all of the passages and content are included. Print and go!

Are these meant to prepare students for Common Core Assessments such as PARCC or Smarter Balanced? No. These are not meant to be used as test prep, but as everyday practices and assessments.

Are you making sets for your other Interactive Notebooks? Yes. Reading Literature is currently available. Next up will be Informational Text.

I teach students for multiple years. Can I use these printables? Yes! There will be 3 sets (see above) so simply purchase the set(s) relevant for your grades.

Will you be making practices and assessments for free interactive notebook lessons, such as irony and making inferences? Yes. Stay tuned!
