This hard worksheet asks second graders to spot mistakes in copied sentences and choose the best fix. Four multiple-choice questions tackle real situations: capitalizing the I in 'i like dogs', re-reading a sentence to check for errors, picking the correctly copied version of 'The cat sat down.', and using a finger spacer or popsicle stick when words run together.
Five fill-in-the-blank items add steps like checking every word is spelled right, using an eraser to fix mistakes neatly, avoiding mixed case in the middle of a word, and reading aloud so a reader can understand. Kids learn to proofread their own copying instead of just rushing through it.
