The Word Box

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is a fill-in-the-blank activity focused on concluding sentences within paragraphs. Students are provided with a word box containing terms such as “topic,” “points,” “ideas,” “main,” “sentence,” “writing,” “end,” and “characteristics.” They must use these words to complete statements about the nature and purpose of concluding sentences. The exercise consists of five incomplete sentences, each addressing a different aspect of concluding sentences in writing.

The worksheet aims to teach students the fundamental attributes and functions of a concluding sentence in a paragraph. It guides students through the process of recognizing how a concluding sentence wraps up the main points without introducing new information. The task reinforces the concept that a concluding sentence appears at the end of a paragraph and should restate the main idea or summarize the key points discussed. By completing this exercise, students practice identifying the critical elements that make an effective concluding sentence, which is crucial for coherent and structured writing.
