Rewriting Passages

Worksheet Description

This worksheet presents an educational activity where students are asked to focus on correctly punctuating spoken words or dialogue. The task requires them to underline the parts of the sentences that represent what the characters are saying. After identifying the dialogue, students must rewrite the sentences, inserting quotation marks where they are necessary. The worksheet contains a list of sentences that simulate real conversations but lack proper punctuation to clearly indicate dialogue.

The worksheet is designed to reinforce the correct use of quotation marks in written dialogue. It teaches students to recognize and highlight the exact words spoken by a character or person within a sentence. Additionally, the exercise instructs students on the placement of quotation marks in relation to other punctuation marks and dialogue tags. Through this practice, students learn to differentiate between the narrative text and the spoken words, improving their writing clarity and grammatical precision.
