Lacking Or Not?

Worksheet Description

The Fragments worksheet is an instructional activity designed to help students identify sentence fragments. It provides a list of phrases and instructs students to decide whether each phrase is a complete sentence or a fragment. The phrases are structured to include common errors, such as missing a subject or predicate, or not expressing a complete thought. Students must write ‘sentence’ or ‘fragment’ on the line next to each phrase, based on their analysis.

The purpose of this worksheet is to educate students on the essential components of a complete sentence. It teaches them to recognize when a group of words lacks a subject, a predicate, or does not fully convey a thought. This skill is crucial for their writing and editing processes, as it enables them to create clear and grammatically correct sentences. By completing the exercise, students practice identifying and correcting incomplete sentences, improving their overall writing competency.
