Grammar Tip of the Day (#1-15)

Grammar Tip of the Day is here to save the day and start class off on a strong foot! Each box contains the necessary information to provide your students with a quick grammar lesson at the start of the day. This information has been formatted to emphasize the key points of each grammar lesson while being easy to copy and paste into a myriad of other presentation forms. References from well regarded sources across the web are also included for each source.

My favorite way to implement these grammar tips is with one quick slide at the beginning of class. Read through the grammar tip in a minute on a time crunch day, or extend it out by building a simple google classroom question or in class activity around the tip. One possible question and activity are provided with each grammar tip!

These tips are a great way to get students warmed up for class and get the cogs turning.
