Transition Upgrade Practice

In this worksheet, students rewrite sentences that contain weak or overly simple transitions, replacing them with stronger and more precise academic transitions. Each original sentence includes a basic connector such as “then,” “also,” or “after that,” and students must revise the sentence to improve clarity and sophistication. This strengthens students’ understanding of how transitions guide readers through relationships between ideas. By practicing revision, learners enhance sentence fluency and develop more effective writing habits. The exercise builds foundational skills necessary for crafting well-organized paragraphs in both narrative and informational writing.
