Autocorrect Errors

In this worksheet, students analyze sentences where an AI system has chosen a word that sounds correct but is actually wrong, similar to an autocorrect mistake. Students must underline the incorrect word, write the correct replacement, and explain the context clue that helped them determine the right meaning. This requires close reading and understanding of how context changes word choice. The activity strengthens vocabulary skills, reinforces homophones and commonly confused words, and promotes reading comprehension through context analysis. Students also practice explaining reasoning clearly in writing.
