I've got a little Secret Code Spelling sheet here. I have the students write each spelling word then draw the picture for each letter next to the word to make a code. I use this as a Word Work center, but if you need a time filler - or something for your sub plans, this sheet could be put under the document camera and done whole group with the spelling list for the week. For a variation, you can have the kids mix up their spelling words and write the code only, then give it to a classmate to "break the code". Not matter how you do it, my students like this one:) Click on the picture to go to my Teachers Pay Teachers store and download this for FREE.

I have a great resource that will help teach grammar, work on writing complete sentences, and practice addition skills! All 3 skills wrapped into one! This resource is great for 1st-3rd graders. But 4th and 5th graders can certainly take advantage and will have some fun doing it. Older students can make some really good sentences. Students will roll 2 dice and add them for a sum. They choose the noun, verb, adjective, preposition, and location from the grammar boards according to the sum they rolled. Students create a sentence using the 5 words they rolled. Students must create a complete sentence using correct punctuation and grammar. The students' sentences will turn out to be fun and silly. Students will be giggling and wanting to do more. This pack below has 10 grammar boards. A ton of different words to make a ton of different sentences. Here is a FREE Grammar-Roll a Sentence board to try practicing grammar, sentences, and addition. This will be a fun way to get your students writing complete sentences and incorporating some math and grammar too! Students roll 2 dice and find the sum. They look in the 1st column on the game board for the sum rolled and record the word in that column. Students continue to roll for a total of 5 times since there are 5 columns. Then students use the 5 words they recorded and write a complete sentence. All 5 words must be present in the sentence. There must be a capital letter and an end punctuation mark. Students can add other words like articles, conjunctions, and nouns to ensure their sentence makes sense. The verb can also be changed to a different tense. For example, the word play can be changed to played. Or the word ate can be changed to eat. Click the picture above to try a FREE game board. Do you need more grammar ideas and activities?
