<\/p>\n

       Do you remember learning grammar as a student? If so, you might recall complicated rules and monotonous lessons. While the rules of grammar have not changed, the methods of teaching grammar have. Making grammar more engaging for your class will not only bring fun into the classroom, but will positively affect your students\u2019 learning. Let\u2019s take a look at what grammatical concepts students need to know in second and third grade. (This list is based off of the Common Core Standards).<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Now that we know what <\/em>to cover, how <\/em>can we teach these topics in an engaging way? <\/span><\/p>\n

1. Add visual aids<\/span><\/p>\n

          -Something as simple as posting the rules of grammar onto your classroom walls can have a big effect on your class. This reference will serve as a daily reminder for your students to keep grammatical concepts in their minds, and in turn will strengthen their writing. Posters, flashcards, flowcharts, and picture dictionaries are all great additions to your classroom. <\/span><\/p>\n

2. Through writing<\/span><\/p>\n

          -One of the best ways to teach grammar is through your students\u2019 writing. It is a perfect opportunity to practice grammatical concepts without focusing the entire lesson on rules and things to remember. This method will not only strengthen their writing, but will also help students to drill these concepts. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

3. Through reading<\/span>
           – Similar to writing, reading will help reinforce grammatical concepts naturally. For example, when you point out action verbs or abstract nouns while reading, your students will begin to recognize these words when they read as well. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

4. Make it fun<\/span>
         -Make grammar something your students look forward to during the day with games and fun activities. Board games, such as \u201cSilent E Kangaroo Hop\u201d and spinner activities to help learn blends are perfect examples of fun grammatical games. Incorporate these into your classroom and watch your students learn while having a blast!<\/span><\/p>\n
