About this resource

If you want to give students extra practice with their grammar skills, I have just the resource for you.

What You Get:

This is a “Light” Correct the Passage Worksheet that was designed for primary students who may be learning about light in science class. It also works well as a review for students. It is a 2-page printable with an answer key. This paragraph will reinforce that light is a form of energy.

How To Implement This Correct the Passage Worksheet:

You will print off this page and distribute it to students. If you want to assess individual student mastery on their grammar and handwriting, you will have to have students to do it individually. This can also be a partner activity so partners can work together to find grammatical errors, but still rewrite the paragraph on their own papers. A final option is to only print a few copies and laminate them for repeated use to be used during small groups with the teacher or centre time.

I hope you enjoy!
