Blank Battalion

Fill the blanks. Break the story.

Choose a word for each blank before you see the story. Then read the story with your words in it. It will probably be very silly! Each unit has its own stories and its own ranks.

FIELD GUIDE

Know your parts of speech

Every word has a job. To find a word's job, try it in a test sentence. If the sentence makes sense, you found its part of speech. Tap a card to flip it.

Tip: Not sure? Try the word in two test sentences. Slimy fits in "The dragon is very ___." Slimily fits in "The dragon ran ___." Lots of adverbs are adjectives with -ly on the end.

HOW A MISSION WORKS

Three steps, one silly story

  1. Pick your words. You will see a part of speech and four words. Choose the word that does that job. The story stays secret.
  2. Read the story. Your words pop into the story. Each part of speech has its own color. Read it out loud!
  3. Move up a rank. Get 6 out of 8 right on your first try to move up. Want to use your own words? Try Free Write.

THE RANK LADDER

Your rank is your level

Each rank practices one skill. Each unit has its own rank. You could be a General in Poetry and a Private in The Greeks!

Speed comes from confidence. Confidence comes from reps.
