Commas and Correcting FANBOYS (Coordinating Conjunctions) - No Red Ink Aligned
- PDF
What educators are saying
Description
Teacher Directions:
Use this 20-question worksheet to help students recognize when commas should and should not be used in conjunction with FANBOYS (for, and, nor, but, or, yet, so). There are two parts. In Part I, students simply decide whether to keep or remove the comma. In Part II, they correct the FANBOYS if an incorrect FANBOY is present in a sentence.
I use this to help high school students review common editing mistakes.
This assignment aligns with the Correcting FANBOYS lessons available on www.NoRedInk.com. If using No Red Ink, I highly recommend using this worksheet as a precursor to the No Red Ink assignment.
As always, this PDF product includes a link to the original Google document for editing and personalization purposes.
