About this worksheet

This is a review sheet. It brings together the grammar and usage skills of the second grade year: naming the describing word in a sentence, choosing a pronoun that fits, finding the action verb, and telling a complete sentence from a fragment. Every other grammar worksheet on this site practices one skill at a time, because a child learns best when a page asks one kind of question. A review sheet is the exception.

It mixes the skills so that a child can see whether they still remember each one after some weeks, and so that a parent can see which skill needs more practice. If a question is hard, go back to the single-skill sheet for it: adjectives, pronouns, action verbs or complete sentences. Ask your child to say the sentence aloud with their answer in it, and to listen for whether it sounds right.

What your child will learn

  • Review nouns, verbs, adjectives, and pronouns
  • Connect word jobs to complete sentences
  • Choose words that fit sentence meaning
  • Revise fragments into complete thoughts

Common Core standard: L.2.1

Worked example

In 'The careful builder tested the bridge,' builder is a noun, careful describes it, and tested tells the action.
