Grammar Practice: Choosing Between Fewer and Less

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

When should you use "fewer" instead of "less?" Reinforce this grammatical nuance in your class with this handy reference sheet. A short explanation guides students through the process of choosing one word over the other, and a series of questions prompts them to change nouns in order to fit the context of "fewer" or "less." A great homework assignment or warm-up activity!
