Description

⭐ NO PREP DIGITAL LESSON: Engage students in 6th, 7th, and 8th grades with this interactive lesson as you introduce or review three ways for correcting run-on sentences. Students will highlight text and type in their own responses to prompts. It's time to replace those boring worksheets!

Students will:

  • learn three different ways to fix run-on sentences and view examples (separate with a period, join with a comma and a coordinating conjunction, insert a semicolon)
  • explain how to fix run-on sentences in their own words
  • apply what they have learned by revising eight paragraphs with the three strategies presented

This lesson provides a hands-on experience for students as they learn how to fix run-on sentences and hone their editing skills!

**DESIGNED FOR GRADES 6-8**

►This lesson is ideal for whole group, small group, and one-on-one instruction for the grade levels I have tagged. It also works well for Response to Intervention (RTI), private tutoring, summer school, and remote learning.

►For students working below grade level, I recommend using the teacher-led/ direct instruction method outlined in the teacher guide. The slideshow is designed with gradual release, BUT some students will need a high level of teacher support throughout the lesson.

A note about using this lesson for independent work... This lesson could be assigned for homework or learning stations if your students have been introduced to the concepts and skills prior to assigning it. I would also consider whether or not your students are good at reading and following directions as the activities switch every few slides.

⭐ WHAT'S INCLUDED?

►Although some parts are editable, the overall design and some of the text cannot be edited. This is to protect my work and the work of the font and clip artists. Please reach out before purchasing if you have questions about which parts are editable. I am very quick to respond in my Q&A and to emails. You can email me at JAN@JANSFILECABINET.COM.

This worked, but it was not the most engaging for my students. In hindsight, maybe I should have instructed them to complete one slide per day or something, because after a couple slides, they were bored... I will think about how to better use it next time, but there is nothing wrong with the resource. Thank you so much for creating it!

Hi Catherine. There are many ways you can deliver this lesson, and yes, this one would work well as a bellringer each day. Breaking it up would provide extended practice and would help with engaging your students. With that being said, 3 stars is a low rating for us here on TPT. 3 out of 5 stars equates to a C in the classroom. I appreciate that you feel there is nothing wrong with the resource, and I encourage you to reconsider your rating because of that. Thank you for your feedback, and I hope the rest of the school year goes well for you.
