These daily reviews align beautifully with 6th grade common core curriculum. I used them for about half the year and my students were able to get a relatively firm grasp of all the concepts. We found some of the root word exercises to be a bit random, frustrating, inapplicable to 6th grade. Students also eventually became bored with the repetitive weekly work and were able to identify patterns that led to shortcuts in work completion and therefore less absorption. This is when we switched to other grammar exercises for the rest of the year.
Would I use this again. Definitely. It has its merits. I would probably provide more focused teaching on each concept, skip or replace some root words exercises and spread out the weekly worksheets to every other or every third week throughout the year. I also found the companion weekly assessments program very helpful for summative assessment and will use that again too.
Thank you!
Great!
Very helpful!
I was excited to use these, but honestly my students didn't find them engaging. They look cool when colored and finished but will need to be supplemented with other meaningful, more authentic ways to actually use the vocabulary.

Have a question about this resource? Log in to ask a question.
I couldn't tell by the preview, but are these separated into facts such as all 0s, or all 1s, etc? Or only mixed? Our district is moving to research based fact strategies and order so I'm looking for something to have them work/play with as we teach each one.
Also, because they are slides, they can be printed as well correct? I know the intent is online, but my students really need paper and pencil.
Hello! They are mixed facts, so you’ll have multiple facts on one card. You can print this resource or use it digitally. Please let me know if you have any other questions.
Hello!
I bought this product and I believe that #1 has an error. On the colored version it is the yellow one. It says _____ rows of 3. This cannot be true because there are 3 rows of 7. I was hoping you could update the colored and B/W to fix this. Thank you :)
Hi Meghann! Thank you so much for bringing this to our attention. We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused you. We just uploaded a corrected version.
