In the past five years, I've tried everything a variety of methods to meet the grammar needs of that year's class of students. Let me save you the trouble of finding some things out the hard way... as well as some ideas that are just plain cool. Here's the problem: Teachers of English are put into a tricky set of dilemmas every school year: How do find "enough" time for students to master, or at least improve, in different grammar topics? How do we engage students in a topic that they find boring and/or difficult? How do we choose which topics we do (or do not) teach? How do I cope when my students either didn't master OR didn't maintain grammar fundamentals from previous years? How do I reconcile my own beliefs, opinions, and/or background knowledge with the task in front of me? On one hand, there's no one right answer. We have to adjust our grammar instruction from year to year to meet the needs of the classes we just inherited. However - and I may ruffle feathers here - as long as there is standardized testing in our schools, we cannot blow off grammar. Period. Even if we don't want to uphold the most traditional norms of Standard English and wish to be more linguistically progressive, it's a disservice to not equip students to be competitive in the worlds, like test-taking, that are not optional at this time. SO, how can teachers survive and thrive in this subsection of ELA? Here are some tips to think about as you plan your school year of instruction! 1. Find and give a grade-level pretest Make or find a pretest to see what students know, but don't feel pressure to make it include all grammar for the year; it's fine to pretest just the topics you think you'll cover that quarter or term. Then you'll know more confidently what you do (or don't!) need to teach. Even better? Give a pretest in the format of the next standardized test they'll take. I've been known to scan and print a page of the ACT's English section from a test prep book and give it to 8th graders. Here's a sample grammar diagnostic test that uses song lyrics to keep things from getting boring: 2. Prove why students should care I love using part or all of my "Why Grammar?" mini-unit, because it lets students read why grammar and editing matter (from people OTHER than me), and motivates them to care more. I'd rather have them hear it from more authentic sources than just take my word for it! If you don't have enough time for the whole mini-unit, you might like part or all of my Word Crimes lesson, made to go with the music video! 3. Give quizzes that grade themselves Check out all of the tech options you have in your building and see if any come with the ability to create self-grading quizzes or polls. My team uses Edmodo, so we can create self-grading quizzes as little formative checkpoints. (Backup plan? Use Google Forms!) 4. Teach it in a GAME Learn more about how I teach grammar in a GAME BOARD format by either reading this blog post or viewing my full grammar bundle here! 5. Narrow your rubric You don't have to grade EVERY piece of writing for grammar, but even when you do, there's no rule that says you have to point out EVERY mistake they make (at least all the time). It's fine to make a rubric in which you JUST grade commas, or JUST spelling/homophones. Your shortened grading time per paper will thank you! 6. Put students in the role of teacher (& artist!) We learn by doing and teaching, right? Push students to deeper levels of thinking with two cool projects My grammar video project, in which students become teachers and make (creative) instructional videos, and My grammar poetry assignment, in which students write about their grammar topics (including personifying them!) 7. Take requests! Every once in a while, why not take student requests on which mini-lessons you should do next? It will up their engagement as well as make them take some ownership and curiosity of a sometimes-dry topic. 8. Students make their own learning goals The ultimate low-stress differentiation is to let students self-assess, identify their own problem areas, make plans to fix them, and then accomplish those plans. Show visible growth from each student with my Grammar & Proofreading Project. 9. Reward error-finding Students catch a grammar error on a store sign? Found a typo in a published book? Caught a business in a sloppy mistake on an ad? Find a way to reward them for their finds - it can be a point, a piece of candy, or just public praise. 10. Write original sentences ASAP Don't just give all the mentor sentences away; make students copy real sentences from others AND also write their own original ones! They need to practice recognizing errors AND drafting correctly the first time. If you need help, here are 10 activities to write grammar rules in context. 11. Use videos wisely Even if you don't have student-made videos (see #6), I highly recommend giving students EITHER videos you find online, or recordings of you explaining a grammar topic. I "flip" most of my grammar instruction with homemade videos; I make PowerPoints explaining a topic and then use screencastomatic.com to record myself narrating over those slides and teaching. There are serious advantages to having grammar instruction in video format. It helps absent students, not to mention any student (IEP or not) who needs to hear something multiple times before it "sticks". 12. FREEBIE: Find it in the texts you're reading! I've seen elaborate mini-lessons analyzing the grammar used in a specific text, and while those are fine, sometimes it's enough to just: Make brief mentions while doing a close reading ("Did y'all see that semicolon that Dickens just used, btw?") Collecting correct sentences from texts! Use my FREE Grammar in Literature activity sheets if you need a starting point! The bottom line Any grammar instruction is better than none, and you have the professional skills and judgment to help your students in the best way that you can. If you don't give up, and if you model that grammar is important, then your teens and tweens will be better for it! Did one of these resonate with you? Tell me in the comments!

Boho...Gypsy...Moroccan...Hippie...Beatnik... Circus... These are all names associated with a style of interior decor most people refer to as Bohemian. I actually consider it a combination of all the above and love it's eclectic and eccentric influence on a room. My 17 year old son has a loft bedroom and gameroom in the attic of our circa 1900 home. You can bet money on the fact that when he leaves the nest (which believe me will break his momma's heart) those two rooms will be turned into my own personal gypsy retreat! I will need the therapy to deal with him leaving! I know many of you LOVE this style of decorating and have asked for more posts about how to achieve the look. I hope you find some inspiration to help you with your gypsy dreams!! A true Bohemian room should look like it has been furnished over decades of globetrotting and a lifetime of creative scavenging. Arguably the most important part of Boho decor is it's use of textiles...pillows, blankets, slipcovers, rugs and fabric draping. Make your patio or porch an extension of your Bohemian interiors. Or if the look is something you want to experience in smaller doses, consider having a fun outside entertainment area. Accessories are an important part of an eclectic interior. There are many options out there for you to collect. This is a style you can have FUN with! This room reflects the Moroccan influence that makes Boho interesting. This is an example of how Bohemian can go formal yet still have that rich, warm, comfortable feel. Lots of patterns are necessary to bring this look to life. The cool thing is that you can create your own accessories. The more individual the better!! No shiny upholstery......your soft furnishings should look as if they have been worn over a period of time. You can cover your chairs with a large selection of new fabrics that have a time worn look I had to share this wonderful Bohemian themed cake. There are some really pretty chandeliers that will make great additions to your room. Jewel colored sheers will make beautiful window treatments and adding fairy lights make it look even more enchanting. This room reflects a more tailored Bohemian style. However, the gorgeous mix of patterns and jewel tone colors are still right on! I just had to throw this image in because it is so pretty. If you feel that this FASHION is not for you....make pillows or curtains for your interiors!! It is fun to thrift shop for interesting cloth from which you can make accessories. Gorgeous window treatment for a Bohemian interior. Use colorful sheers or ecru ones like in this picture and then drape something similar (maybe multicolored beads) as a valance. Beautiful jewel tone colors against an aqua painted wall....so pretty! Hammocks and swings are great Boho accessories! What eclectic interior would not benefit from this beauty! I would love for you to leave a comment about what inspires YOU about the Bohemian style!
I think the reason tray bake recipes are such popular dinner ideas on taste.com.au is that they make light work of an impressive-looking (and impressive-tasting) meal – which is why we had to include chicken tray bake in our Savvy Dinner Plan. I love that tray bakes require minimal prep, you really can let the oven do the heavy lifting, and, hey presto, you have a dinner-party-worthy dish you can whip up on a weeknight. That’s why I’ve created this creamy French chicken tray bake. This recipe transforms chicken and potatoes with a simple, rich and creamy sauce that celebrates retro classic flavours. Plus, by browning chicken with a little butter and oil, you can add a richness and extra depth of flavour to your chicken. My pro tip? Take care not to overheat your pan, to avoid burning your butter. Then, serve your tray bake with green beans and you have one well-rounded meal for less. How to make my budget-friendly creamy French chicken tray bake: key ingredient swaps To start, using smaller chicken breasts is not only a budget-friendly choice, but it also cuts down on cooking time because they cook faster. I’ve also bulked up this tray bake using plenty of roast potatoes to stretch the dish further. Then, browning my chicken in butter and a little oil takes the flavour of this seemingly simple (yet oh-so flavourful) meal to the next level! I chose Coles Simply Unsalted Butter as a savvy way to add richness without adding lots of extra ingredients. And I’ve ‘cheated’ by using another secret ingredient that adds loads of flavour while also making your shopping list that little bit shorter. My secret ingredient? I used French onion soup mix to enhance the traditional French onion flavour of this dish, while also cutting down on the amount of ingredients required to achieve it. Two birds, one product, zero complaints. Save even more across the month with the Savvy Dinner Plan The taste + Coles Savvy Dinner plan is full of clever ways to use ingredients across multiple meals. You can use the Coles Simply Unsalted Butter in the couscous from our French onion curried sausage recipe from week 1. What’s the Savvy Dinner Plan? The taste.com.au food team has redesigned our most searched-for family dinner recipes to help you stretch your grocery budget further. By making savvy ingredient swaps and switching up how you plan and cook, the Savvy Dinner Plan can help shave dollars off your favourite dinners, without compromising on flavour. The Savvy Dinner Plan offers you four weeks of budget-friendly recipes, plus use-it-up hacks and cost-saving tips. This recipe features in week 2. Not a planner? You can still save.
