Test out this top rated digital resource! Are you looking for a digital alternative to the daily language reviews that you used in your 4th grade Google Classroom? Or maybe you need interactive language arts task cards to use for distance learning ELAR centers? Click and go morning work? Or just a quick assessment? Whatever the need, this 20-day set of digital daily language mixed-skill task cards will do the trick! That’s 4 full weeks. These daily language practice cards work with PowerPoint for Microsoft Teams and Google Slides for Google Classroom. The cards have interactive pieces that students can click and drag to boost student engagement.

These daily language practice activities are aligned to 4th grade standards, but work great for remediation for struggling older students, reteaching from the summer or COVID-19 slide, challenging gifted younger students, or differentiation within grade level. Skills include capitalization, punctuation, spelling, plural nouns with spelling rule changes, verb tenses, compound words, contractions, abbreviations, analogy, figurative language, multiple-meaning words, homophones, synonyms and antonyms, context clues, parts of speech, sentence types, and alphabetical order. Answer keys are also included in the paid resources.

To Use as a Digital ELAR Center

Upload the card for the day to your digital classroom as an assignment. As you finish a lesson and break out to meet with a smaller group, have others complete the daily practice as an independent activity.

To Use as Task Cards

Upload the whole deck of cards to your digital classroom and have students work through the cards together, in groups, or independently to review the concepts.

To Use as Assessment

These cards are great for quick assessments to gauge student understanding with just a few questions can implement intervention if needed before moving on to the next topic.

To Use as Bell Ringers

Use these as a morning greeting on your whiteboard to get students engaged language thinking first thing in the morning.
