Second Step: Work on Those Skills!
After taking the online grammar quiz, I want you to identify three skills on which you could improve. If you got all of the questions correct on the grammar quiz, pick three skills that don't come quite as easy to you as the others. When you have these three skills in mind, find a link below and do a practice for each skill. *If any of the links below aren't working, just go to Google, and type in "online practice for ____" and fill in whatever skill it is that you want to work with.
Identifying Parts of Speech
Verbs
Verb Phrases
Adjectives
Adverbs
Prepositional Phrases
Predicate Nominatives (although this quiz calls them predicate nouns, I need you to remember that they are NOT called predicate nouns; they are called predicate nominatives).
Predicate Adjectives
Subjects
Simple Subjects
Predicates
Direct Objects

Final Step: Reflection
After you have completed all of the assessment and review activities, I want you to take a moment and reflect on how your grammar abilities are developing. Consider the things that you seem to be doing a nice job with, and the things with which you could still use some practice. Look at the list below when you are writing your reflection. You could craft your reflection by just doing down the list and rating your ability for each skill on a scale of 1-5, and then write a few sentences explaining, or you could just craft a paragraph (4-6 sentences) that expresses your grammar abilities. *See my example post for more information.
