How do each of the challenges work?

  • Start by assigning the paper or digital quiz to check your students’ understanding of the topic before you begin.  An answer key is provided for the print version, or the digital option is self-grading!
  • Use the Powerpoint presentation or the Google Slides presentation to guide you through each element of the lesson and activity.  The slides will help you teach the grammar concept, introduce the story and challenge, and review the answers.
  • Read the narrative story as a class to hook students and  introduce the challenge.  The stories are provided in print format and on a digital Google Slide for students to read.
  • Once you have completed the quiz, taught the grammar concept, and read the story, students are ready to try the grammar challenge!  The print version includes all of the printable materials you need to facilitate the activity.  For the digital version, simply share the link with students and they are ready to complete the challenge on their device!
  • When students find the answer, you can share the conclusion slides in the teacher presentation to wrap up the story.  In the digital version, a password-protected file is also included in the challenge where students can check their answers and the conclusion is revealed if they are correct.
  • Want to check to see if your students’ understanding of the concept has improved?  Assign the pre-assessment quiz again after they have completed the challenge to see if they have improved.
