The active and passive voice case asks students who really performed the action, which shows you straight away who understands passive sentences. Each case runs on its own, so you can use one as a bell ringer, a center or a quick check before a quiz. Use it for bell ringers and warm-ups, ELA centers, small group grammar lessons, homework, test prep, sub plans, early finishers, homeschool lessons, and back to school or end of year review.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrade Levels\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for 6th, 7th and 8th grade.
