Grade 5 hard sheet 3 explores compound words that are closed like notebook, hyphenated like twenty-one and well-known, or open like high school. Students answer four multiple-choice questions and five fill-in-the-blank sentences that test which compound form is correct. This Grade 5 worksheet helps writers see why some compounds join, some take a hyphen, and some stay as two words in standard written English.
