4th Grade Grammar Worksheets

4th Grade worksheets by skill

Each skill has its own page with the rules written out and a generator set to that skill alone.

• Nouns worksheetsSpotting the naming words in a sentence, and telling common, proper, collective and abstract nouns apart.
• Plural Nouns worksheetsMaking nouns plural — the easy -s ones, the -es and -ies spelling changes, and the irregulars that just have to be learned.
• Verb Tenses worksheetsPast, present and future — including irregular past forms, the progressive tenses, and keeping one tense across a whole sentence.
• Adjectives worksheetsDescribing words — finding them in a sentence, and building the comparative and superlative forms without doubling up.
• Adverbs worksheetsWords that tell how, when or where something happened — and the good/well, real/really pairs that trip students up.
• Pronouns worksheetsWords that stand in for nouns — he, her, theirs, myself, who — and choosing the form that fits the job in the sentence.
• Contractions worksheetsJoining two words with an apostrophe — don't, we're, won't — and taking them back apart again.
• Possessives and Apostrophes worksheetsShowing that something belongs to someone — singular, plural, irregular plural — and knowing when NOT to use an apostrophe.
• Capitalization worksheetsWhich words get a capital letter: sentence starts, names, days and months, places, holidays and titles.
• Punctuation worksheetsEnd marks, quotation marks and sentence boundaries — including fixing run-ons and fragments.
• Commas worksheetsWhere the comma goes: lists, dates and addresses, introductory phrases, direct address, and extra information.
• Prepositions worksheetsThe little position words — in, on, under, between, during — and the phrases they start.
• Conjunctions worksheetsJoining words — and, but, because, although, either/or — and using them to combine short sentences into longer ones.
• Subject-Verb Agreement worksheetsMaking the verb match its subject, including the sentences where the subject is not the word sitting next to the verb.
• Commonly Confused Words worksheetsThe pairs that stay wrong for years — their/there/they're, your/you're, its/it's, to/too/two, then/than.

Questions parents and teachers ask

What grammar is taught in 4th grade?

Relative pronouns (who, whose, which, that), Progressive verb tenses (was walking, is walking), Modal verbs (can, may, must), Prepositional phrases and fixing fragments and run-on sentences, frequently confused words (to/too/two, there/their). That is the curriculum. This generator covers nouns, plural nouns, verb tenses, adjectives, adverbs, pronouns, contractions, possessives and apostrophes, capitalization, punctuation, commas, prepositions, conjunctions, subject-verb agreement, commonly confused words — a subset of it, and every question it prints is written for this grade.

How long should a 4th grade grammar worksheet be?

Ten to fifteen questions is usually right for this age. A shorter sheet done properly, with the answer key gone through afterwards, beats a long one rushed. Change the count in the panel above.
