Add to Wish List
I would rather buy from TPT

Grade Level: 4th Grade

This resource is all about possessive pronouns: what they are and how to identify them. I designed this unit to help your students learn what possessive pronouns are—and retain that knowledge. The activities are simple to prep, and should only take about 10 minutes of class time. By the end of the week, your students will be able to confidently spot a possessive pronoun at 50 paces!

More about this resource

Our UPDATED fourth grade grammar lesson on possessive pronouns makes teaching grammar a piece of cake. Grammar is so important for kids to understand, but it can be tough to teach. There are so many rules and exceptions. It’s easy to second-guess yourself. And let’s face it, grammar isn’t always a ton of fun.

But with these UPDATED & IMPROVED lessons, your students can become excellent grammarians in just 10 minutes a day! Each no prep lesson comes complete with a full week of activities, including: a mini-lesson, interactive notebook activity (NOW with answer key), writing, task cards, and an assessment.

We’ve done all the planning and prep for you. Each lesson includes everything you need to teach, practice, and assess the weekly skill. Tricky grammar skills are broken down into bite-sized pieces. All you have to do is print and teach. And a JUST ADDED digital assessment makes weekly assessments a breeze. The digital assessment is editable, so you can customize it to meet your students’ needs.

***This UPDATED lesson is also part of a money-saving bundle. See the full-year Fourth-Grade Grammar Bundle!***

Frequently Asked

Are there other fourth grade grammar lessons available?

Yes! You can see all of the fourth grammar lessons here, or purchase this lesson as part of a money-saving year-long bundle.

Do you have grammar lessons for other grades?

Yes! We have grammar lessons for second, third, and fifth grades.

Where do you have the students do the writing activity? In the same notebook as the notebook activity? Or a different notebook?

I have my students do it on the page next to their notebook activity.

Do you have any suggestions for how to organize the grammar notebooks? Does this need to be a separate notebook from their writing journal?

My students don’t generally have enough room in the writing notebook to include grammar. But I did go ahead and split my reading notebook in half and use it for grammar and reading.

Will the PowerPoints open properly on Google Slides? My school does not use Microsoft.

Yes.

Are the PowerPoint presentations editable?

I’m sorry. There is not an editable version of this resource at this time.

How do I use the digital assessment?

This resource includes a PDF with links to the digital assessments. These are editable so you can customize them to meet your students' needs. Digital assessments work with Google Classroom.

The power point on Monday is very engaging and a great way to introduce to skill. My students put the Tuesday activity in a grammar notebook that they can reference throughout the year. And of course, Scoot is a class favorite! Thank you for a great resource!

I’ve struggled all year fitting in my grammar units. I purchased this to see if it would help my students. They loved the work and the movement that went with it. It also helped my test grades but on top of that, several weeks later, they retained the information!!
