Just wait till you all see my behavior lessons involving Jayne as the bad example:) I've even set up dvd clips. Hopefully, many kids will ask about them:)

Hehe, that's awesome, forgot about PSE type lessons you could incorporate just about anything in them. Who's the good guy?

MSG--I still don't agree, but I could be wrong. It's happened once or twice...
Anyway, it doesn't matter, and what I should have said before, shiny quiz!
Sorry about back to school night, everyone here is grumbling about it too.
Have fun! Any time you can put "Firefly" in your classroom is good by us!
Mal: You know, you ain't quite right.
River: It's a popular theory.

"Its" is a pronoun and takes no apostrophe, just like "hers".
"It's" is a contraction for "it is", always.
msg, normally I'd wag a finger at you and be real mean, but since you're so tired and working so hard to bring those kids into the Browncoat fold (ever so gently) I'll let it slide this time.
(Oh, and "grammar" contains no 'e'. Though because of that, it's quite true that your test contains no grammer errors, whatever they are.)

I'm pointin' right at it!

very cool. Wish I had you as a teach when I was in school. Probably would have gotten better grades.
Then I could have gone to college right away and would be done with it.

4- Shepherd Book will not be able to fix the problem.
5- The girl's name could not be River and it should be Summer.
I would like to take this test in Firefly vernacular. I hope you don't mind. I won't even yell at you for improper grammar and'or spelling as others have...
That said:
1. Kaylee shouldn't be finished (No change there.)
2. Mal don't like Inara's job.
3. Jayne didn't hit Simon with the bat (No change.)
4. Shepherd Book won't be able to fix the problem. (K, so maybe these don't change as I originally thought.)
On that note... I'll stop. It isn't quite so fun. You should write one (or maybe I should) that can be contracted poorly. That is, in Firefly vernacular, like #2. Because it so rocks.
By the way, what age do you teach?

Sorry Penguin, ya got 2 of 'em wrong
6- It's a hard time for Sean right now.
It is the subject of the sentence. Sean is the object of the preposition.
7-Once upon a time, in a far away country called Serenity Valley, a group of people made an army to fight the Alliance.
And group is the subject of the sentence. . Of people is a prepositional phrase modifying group.
