Correlative Fix-Up

This worksheet helps students in Grades 6 and 7 strengthen advanced grammar and editing skills by correcting correlative conjunction errors within full paragraphs. Instead of working with isolated sentences, learners revise connected text, identifying misused, mismatched, or missing correlative pairs and rewriting each paragraph to ensure correct pairing, parallel structure, and clear meaning throughout.

Learning Goals

• Editing Paragraphs for Conjunction Accuracy (Grades 6-7) – Students locate and correct correlative conjunction errors across multiple sentences.
• Correcting Correlative Conjunction Misuse – Learners fix mismatched pairs and supply missing conjunctions where needed.
• Parallel Structure in Multi-Sentence Writing – Students ensure ideas joined by correlatives follow balanced grammatical patterns.
• Revising for Clarity and Coherence – The activity reinforces how correct conjunction use improves paragraph flow and readability.

• Teacher-Created Resource – Designed to align with upper-elementary and middle school ELA grammar and writing standards.

• Builds Consistency Awareness – Helps students maintain correct grammar choices across an entire paragraph.
• Strengthens Proofreading Skills – Encourages systematic checking for paired structures and parallelism.
• Flexible Use – Ideal for grammar lessons, editing workshops, assessment preparation, or enrichment.
