Error Correction Sentences

Students are tasked with rewriting sentences that contain incorrect uses of “then” and “than.” This exercise encourages learners to identify and correct grammatical mistakes within full sentences, reinforcing proper application of each word. The activity helps strengthen editing and revision skills, as well as the ability to self-correct in writing. By analyzing and rewriting, students build confidence in distinguishing between comparison and sequence in context.
