In The Brackets

Worksheet Description

This Word Formation worksheet instructs students to rewrite sentences, inserting the correct form of a word provided in brackets. Each sentence on the worksheet includes a blank space and a base word in brackets that the student needs to modify to complete the sentence accurately. The exercise tests the student’s ability to transform words into their correct grammatical form, whether it be an adjective, noun, verb, or adverb. For example, the word “tolerate” must be changed to “tolerant” to fit the first sentence properly.

The worksheet is aimed at teaching students how to apply different word forms such as adjectives, nouns, verbs, and adverbs in a sentence context. It encourages students to recognize and form derivatives of base words, enhancing their grammatical and morphological understanding. By rewriting the sentences with the correct word form, the worksheet helps students practice their spelling and reinforces their vocabulary. The task also aids in developing their critical thinking skills as they must analyze each sentence to determine the most appropriate word form to use.
