| Teachers: If you see any errors, please e-mail me so I can correct them for the next person. For a little extra pizazz, have the students hilight the nouns. Then before grading, use a hole punch and punch out the correct answers. Place this sheet over the student's and using a contrasting color (green, purple and orange work great) mark through any answer that is not showing through the hole! Total answers 44. |
