A one-week to two-week unit on identifying and correcting problems with tense shifts and subject-verb agreement complete with daily bell ringers, worksheets, quiz, a teacher's guide, and more!
This is unit #15 of Ten-Minute Grammar: Trimester Two. Also available are the other eight units in Trimester Two, all nine units in Trimester One, and nine more in Trimester Three. If you plan on using more than a few Ten-Minute Grammar units during the year, purchasing full-trimester units or the FULL-YEAR megadownload will save a lot of time and money:
Ten-Minute Grammar: Trimester One
Ten-Minute Grammar: Trimester Two
Ten-Minute Grammar: Trimester Three
TMG: FULL YEAR!
Ten-Minute Grammar is a comprehensive grammar curriculum based on the Common Core Standards for seventh-grade, eighth-grade, or ninth-grade students. Using only the first ten minutes of each day, this unit helps students learn by discovery to identify and fix incorrect tense shifts and errors with subject-verb agreement, two of the most common verb errors my students make. Students practice and review for a week to a week and a half, and then take a final quiz. Several extra-practice worksheets provide differentiation and remediation for students struggling with the concepts. To give the students exposure to quality published writing, some of the practice example sentences are drawn from The Forest of Hands and Teeth by Carrie Ryan.
This 21-page unit includes everything you'll need for up to two weeks of grammar instruction:
* Seven days of bell-ringer activities
* Daily wordplay activities
* Three double-sided worksheets
* One unit quiz
* A modified unit quiz for students on IEPs
* Plus an additional 20-page teacher's guide with answer keys and extra lesson instructions
The daily bellwork or bell ringers can be copied onto transparencies for an overhead projector or projected digitally onto a white board or a SmartBoard.
Unit files will come as a PDF file, but the folder also includes the original Word files in case you want to make small tweaks to a page or two (which I often like to do when I purchase lesson materials from someone else.) Download the FREE preview in PDF format for a sample of what you'll get in the unit.

Great unit! My students really needed to see HOW the verb-subject tense agreement was necessary in reading and writing.
