Looking for an engaging way to practice parts of speech with your students this holiday season? This Christmas Parts of Speech Word Sort is a fun and interactive digital Boom Cards™ activity designed for grammar practice, ESL/ELL learners, and elementary students. With a festive holiday theme, students will sort nouns, adjectives, and prepositions into the correct categories by dragging and dropping words. This hands-on format helps students strengthen grammar skills while learning important Christmas vocabulary.
Inside this activity, students will work with 90 different words—30 for each category—giving them plenty of opportunities to practice. The carefully selected word lists include common English adjectives (beautiful, delicious, tall, clean), useful prepositions (under, behind, between, with, near), and festive Christmas nouns (candy cane, sleigh, reindeer, Santa Claus). By practicing word recognition and categorization, students build stronger grammar foundations while enjoying seasonal fun.
This resource is ideal for grammar review before winter break, holiday literacy centers, or ESL small group lessons. Because Boom Cards™ are digital, the activity requires no prep, printing, or laminating. Students simply log in and play on a laptop, tablet, or interactive whiteboard. The cards are self-checking, saving you time while providing immediate feedback and progress tracking.
