This Grade 2 informational writing worksheet asks students to choose the best fact for a paragraph. Learners read four multiple-choice items and pick the supporting fact that matches the topic, then complete five fill-in-the-blank sentences about staying on topic. Grade 2 writers practice leaving out off-topic facts, checking each fact, and using true information instead of feelings or guesses in informational paragraphs.
