Revise Them

Worksheet Description

The Run-on Sentences worksheet presents students with a series of sentences that are incorrectly structured as run-ons. These sentences contain multiple independent clauses that have been combined without appropriate punctuation or coordinating conjunctions. The task for students is to revise each sentence, thereby correcting the run-on structure. This exercise challenges students to identify the points where sentences should be properly separated and to apply the correct punctuation or conjunctions to fix the errors.

This worksheet is teaching students to recognize and correct run-on sentences, which is an essential skill for clear and grammatically correct writing. It helps students understand the importance of punctuation, such as periods, commas, and semicolons, in connecting independent clauses properly. By rewriting these sentences, students learn to improve sentence clarity and to avoid common writing mistakes. The activity reinforces the rules of sentence structure and aims to enhance the students’ editing and writing skills.
