Grammar-Land Worksheets Part 1

*** If you are having issues with Scribd, try viewing all of these documents with Google Docs.***


I've mentioned one of the free resources we are using for grammar in a previous post, but I made some worksheets today to go along with the book and I wanted to share them with you all.  Grammar-Land by M.L. Nesbitt is a wonderful book, and a perfect choice for Charlotte Mason inspired families.  You can view it online or download the pdf file, or buy the book.  We read it on my Sony Reader (the best homeschooling investment I have made!)

At the end of each chapter are some exercises woven into the story.  I've taken those exercises and turned them into worksheets.  Without something printed out and ready to go we tend to forget to do the exercises and I really think they are helpful in cementing concepts.  So far I have 6 worksheets completed.  I believe there are 17 chapters in the book, and I hope to have them all completed by the end of the week.

Thank you! I can't wait to use these with my son.

Amy said...

Have you been able to make any more of these? They look fun!

Jessica said...

Amy, I haven't had a chance to get to it. I had really hoped to get it done by the middle of February and that obviously didn't happen. I think I'll schedule a day off of school next week so I can just sit down and do it. So look for them to be up by the end of next week!

Fantastic! Thank you oh so much for sharing!

Mabel said...

Love it! I too need something ready to go otherwise it doesn't get done. Thanks for sharing!

Just came across a link to your GL pages on TWTM. These are great! I've been tossing around the idea of using GL for my DD in 4th grade this fall. I'll need to take a closer look...Thanks for sharing!

I started reading Grammarland to my son,9 and he loves it. He begs me to do it everyday. The worksheets are fabulous!!

Amy said...

Just learning about this book and grateful for the time you've spent to make the worksheets! Thanks.

Kay said...

I'm having problems printing the sheet at Scrib. I've tried downloading. I've connected through Facebook, as it suggested. It doesn't seem to want to let me download and print. Can you give me a hint?

And thank you so much for providing these sheets. I'm going to start Grammarland with my son next week.

Kay,

If you look at the very top of the post you will see a link to download the documents using Google Docs. Too many people were having trouble with Scribd, so I made them available through Google Docs.

Thank you! It worked.

Tammy said...

Jessica,
I just found your worksheets. They are wonderful! We are up to chapter 14 now and I have just been making copies of the pages.

One question, does anyone have the answers? While some exercises are very easy and obvious, others gives us pause to think.

Jessica said...

Tammy, I don't have answer sheets made up. We only got to a certain point before it seemed a little too much for my 1st grader and we set the book aside to complete in a couple of years. I don't have any plans to make any in the near future, either, as I'm pregnant and have my hands quite full! lol

If anyone else has answer sheets made up and would like to share them I would be happy to link to them in my blog post so that everyone can access them.

Thank You so much, the worksheets will work so well for me. We are just getting ready to start our 3rd 12 week session for the year and these will be perfect.

Just had to add my thanks as well. I'm looking to read this to my 3rd grader & was so excited to find someone had already made worksheets! Thanks a million for not only putting this all together, but for freely sharing it with all of us as well.
Best wishes to you & yours.
