What this worksheet teaches

• Use apostrophes for possession (the dog's bowl) and tell them apart from plurals (two dogs).
• Spot and fix run-on sentences by splitting them or adding a joining word.
• Use adverbs to say how, when or where an action happened.
• Label the subject and the predicate in a sentence and see that both are needed.

How to use this worksheet

Apostrophes are the Grade 3 sticking point, and the confusion is always plural versus possessive. Ask one question of every apostrophe on the page: does something belong to somebody? If not, it should not be there.

Sample questions from this worksheet

1. MCQ: Which is a pronoun?
2. MCQ: The birds ______ in the sky.

Frequently asked questions

My child's grammar is fine in speech but weak on paper. Normal?

Yes. Speech is automatic; writing adds spelling and punctuation load. Short, focused sheets like this one narrow that gap faster than long writing tasks.

Why does my child put an apostrophe in every word ending in s?

It is a known over-correction once apostrophes are taught. Keep to the single test - does it show belonging? - and the extra ones disappear within a few weeks of practice.

What exactly is a run-on sentence?

Two complete ideas pushed together with no full stop or joining word, such as 'I like dogs they are loud'. It is one of the most common Grade 3 writing errors and easy to fix once spotted.
