Regular level question set

These questions focus on identifying the basic parts of speech (noun, pronoun, adjective, adverb, verb, conjunction, and preposition) as they are used in sentences. Several questions also ask students to identify which word in the sentence is modified by a given adjective, adverb, or prepositional phrase. One question requires students to identify the antecedent for a given pronoun.

Challenge level question set

These questions include the basic parts of speech, but also add the following content:

• types of pronouns and pronoun case
• functions of nouns (subject, direct object, object of preposition)
• verbals (participle and infinitive)
• types of conjunctions
• simple subjects and predicates
• functions of adverbial, adjective, and noun clauses.

Teacher Prep

1. First, preview and print the multiple choice questions to choose which version (regular or challenge) is appropriate for your students. Assigning certain pages to different students is a perfect way to differentiate the assignment. You can even mix and match with one page of simpler questions and one of more rigorous. Just make sure each student has questions numbered 1-30.
2. Then print copies of coloring pages (p. 3-6) so that each student receives one page.
3. Gather supplies. You will need colored pencils or crayons (red, orange, yellow, light green, dark green, light blue, dark blue, purple, and brown) and scissors. You’ll also need tape or sticky tack if you want to display the completed artwork.

Using this Parts of Speech Review

This makes a great sub plan! Students will be engaged and reviewing key grammar concepts. If you want to add accountability or just need a grade for the gradebook, have students submit their multiple choice answer sheets, too.

Coloring page keys vary and yield slightly different color patterns. This is intentional (not a mistake) to encourage independent work rather than copying a neighbor.

About the Sentences

The sentences used in this assignment came from fall-themed poems. Both regular and challenge question sets use the same sentences, just with differing levels of rigor in the questions.

Every leaf speaks bliss to me, fluttering from the autumn tree. ~ “Fall, leaves, fall” by Emily Brontë

Something in me isn’t ready to let go of summer so easily. ~ “September Tomatoes” by Karina Borowicz

Shorter and shorter now the twilight clips the days, as though the sunset gates they crowd. ~ “Autumn” by Alice Cary

I am not deceived; I do not think it is still summer because sun stays and birds continue to sing. ~ “A Sunset of the City” by Gwendolyn Brooks
