In this Grade 2 sheet, students sort sentences to decide which ones belong in an informational paragraph and which belong in a story. Six sentences are grouped under Informational or Story, then fill-ins and true or false questions build understanding. Kids learn that informational writing teaches real facts about dogs, rain, or sports, while stories use made-up characters and events. A strong Grade 2 introduction to W.2.2 that makes the difference clear.
