Worksheet Description

The Run-on Sentences worksheet is a practical exercise aimed at helping students identify and correct run-on sentences. The worksheet provides a series of sentences that are incorrectly structured, either because they contain multiple independent clauses joined without proper punctuation or because they are lacking necessary conjunctions. Students are instructed to correct each sentence by appropriately adding punctuation, breaking them into two sentences, or including the missing information required to make the sentences grammatically correct.

This worksheet is designed to teach students how to address the issue of run-on sentences in their writing. It guides them in understanding the importance of punctuation, such as periods and commas, to separate independent clauses and the use of conjunctions to join them properly. Through this activity, students learn to enhance the clarity and coherence of their sentences. The aim is to improve their grammatical skills, ensuring they can construct and punctuate sentences correctly for effective communication.
