Yes Or No

Run-on Sentences #12

Worksheet Description

The Run-on Sentences worksheet is an educational activity that tasks students with identifying run-on sentences. Each item presents a sentence, and students must decide whether it is a run-on by writing ‘YES’ or ‘NO’ on the provided line. The sentences vary in structure and complexity, challenging students to apply their knowledge of grammar to determine whether the sentences contain improperly connected independent clauses.

This worksheet is teaching students to recognize run-on sentences, which are sentences that improperly connect two or more independent clauses without correct punctuation or conjunctions. The goal is to enhance students’ grammar and editing skills, enabling them to write clear and correctly punctuated sentences. By identifying run-on sentences, students learn to avoid common errors and improve the readability of their writing. This exercise also helps students to become more proficient in proofreading and revising their own work.
