Students fill in the blanks in these mad libs with the appropriate parts of speech. You probably know how to do mad libs, but if not: Have the students take out a blank paper, read each part of speech they will need and have them choose a word that fits. Then, pass out this worksheet, have students fill their words into the blanks, and laugh at the amusing results.
