A modifier is a word or group of words that describes another word or phrase in the same sentence. Modifiers help to create more clear and engaging sentences for readers by adding additional details about certain elements in the sentence. In this seventh-grade grammar worksheet, learners will practice rewriting sentences to include a phrase or clause that correctly modifies the highlighted noun or noun phrase in each sentence. For more practice with modifiers, check out the Identify Misplaced and Dangling Modifiers and Correct Misplaced and Dangling Modifiers worksheets!
