This is a scientific method lab sheet geared to merge a science experiment with grammar by using complete sentences.

Students will have fun researching 5 unique mammals that are funny-looking and just plain strange. Students will discover some interesting facts about each one, learn how to copy and paste a picture into a Google doc document, and some of the mammals' locations.

The mammals are the Javan Rhino, the Cuban Solenodon, the Pygmy Possum, the China Baiji, and the Echidna.

Using colored pencils or crayons, students will read some Christmas puns and then identify nouns, verbs, pronouns, Adverbs, and Adjectives with different colors.

This worksheet is a scavenger hunt that students can use to learn and relearn the knowledge of expository text features.  In the worksheet, students will find titles of diagrams, titles of charts, captions, keywords, bullet points, illustrations, table of contents, glossary, sidebars, titles, subtitles, and maps.

I use the Scholastic News with this worksheet, but it could work with any magazine type.

In this 3rd Grade worksheet, students will break apart words that contain prefixes.  They will write the root word, the prefix itself, and then define the word.

You can also access the Google Doc version of this prefix activity.

This 3rd-grade educational resource teaches students how to create a 1st person comic strip. Students will learn to use dialogue and illustrations to tell a story from a character's perspective. This fun and engaging activity allows students to flex their creative muscles while also developing their writing and artistic skills. By the end of the lesson, students will have a finished comic strip they can be proud of.

Your students will read about Skip, a squirrel with a problem.  He doesn't like to eat his vegetables.  Skip and his friend come up with a solution.  As students read the cloze reading story, they will use a word bank to fill in the blanks with.  Students will change the words into contractions.

Students will find this grammar activity and worksheet fun as they try to put the words in the correct order to make a sentence.

This alphabetical order worksheet using words from Saxon Phonics lesson 12, can also be used as a competition where students are challenged to place all words in the correct alphabetical order.

In this compare and contrast activity, students will read two articles or two books, or watch two short Youtube videos about two animals.  Students will then compare and contrast the two animals, finding differences and similarities.  This is a great assignment to bring science and biology into the reading classroom.

I use either Youtube videos or short books found on GetEpic. (GetEpic is a free reading program with thousands of free, fully colored books.)
