It will open a PDF for you to print. Happy discovering!

Our Family Garden (grammar worksheet)

Posted on May 23, 2013 by Squarehead Teachers

I visited with a friend recently who has started their own family garden. Such a great idea! An idea great enough (in fact) to inspire this free grammar worksheet! When kids finish the front, they can turn the page over and write about/draw what they would put in their own garden. Enjoy!

Here’s the last batch (6) of Squarehead grammar worksheets in a Google Doc.

Summer at the Beach (grammar worksheet)

Posted on May 22, 2013 by Squarehead Teachers

Kids are so focused on summer at this point in the school year, so why not harness that energy and use it to work on grammar? When kids finish this side of the free grammar worksheet, they can flip it over and write about their summer plans. Fast finisher activity? Check!

The Rope Jumper (grammar worksheet)

Posted on May 20, 2013 by Squarehead Teachers

I love how little kids exaggerate with numbers (like “it’s gonna take me a million years to finish this book”). That was the inspiration for this little jump rope cartoon. Have another free grammar practice worksheet (since you can never have too many)!

Teaching Maps (Younger Grades)

Posted on May 19, 2013 by Squarehead Teachers

Utah State University publishes a super cool teacher resource through a program called Core Academy. Every summer, teachers can sign up to attend a training for activities specifically tied to the core. It’s pretty rad. So every year, there are new materials published from the summer training course!

I especially love the maps unit for 2nd grade (section 4-3 in this packet).

I just got off the phone with my Grandpa, who reminded me of a story of my dad’s youth. So in my dad’s honor, I present this grammar worksheet that reminds me of something he and his brothers would have done. Enjoy!
