Summertime Misplaced Modifiers

Head off on a summertime adventure as you fix these misplaced modifiers! To start, seventh and eighth graders will revise each sentence to correct the underlined misplaced modifier. Then, in the second half of the worksheet, students must identify the misplaced modifier on their own and correct the sentence.

Identifying and correcting grammatical errors, such as misplaced modifiers, can help students become more aware of sentence structure and clarity in their own writing. Building revision and editing skills allows learners to review their work more critically and to make sure their writing is clear and concise.
