🎃 Halloween Cut and Paste Worksheets for Grammar Review

Students independently identify the nouns, verbs, and adjectives and sort each Halloween word into its correct part of speech category. The worksheets included contain two versions of the same activity, described as follows.

Version 1 has students cutting, sorting, and gluing nouns, verbs and adjectives into their labelled part of speech categories. These are perfect for your grade-level readers and writers.
Version 2 is the same concept but differentiated for struggling readers and EAL students. This version of the resource provides students with visual cues to help with decoding each word.

Grab these Halloween grammar worksheets and help your students better understand the three parts of speech.

Fully Editable for Differentiation

Download these fall-themed grammar worksheets as a Google Slides file. Double-click on the words and change them to make them easier or more complex, depending on your students’ needs.
