Description

This is the perfect activity to use when practicing the skills that go with editing a sentence or piece of writing.

Your class will love working alongside you, or in groups to fix these sentences up.

Simply cut out and laminate the letters, punctuation and editing characters. Attach to pegs, paddle pop sticks or make finger puppets with them! Then, print out and cut up the sentences to display on the whiteboard. As a class or in groups, use the editing symbols on the following page, to identify errors in the sentences. Guide students to check if each sentence:

Uses capital letters where required
Uses correct sentence punctuation
Uses accurate spelling
Makes sense
Is rewritten neatly with finger spacing between words
