Grade 2 Writing Worksheet
Write what happens at the beginning, in the middle and at the end. Use the order words in the box.
A birthday surprise
A snow day
A story has a beginning, a middle and an end, and the events in it happen in order. Good writers show the order with words such as first, next, then, later and finally, so the reader never wonders what came before. This worksheet gives two story ideas, and for each one the child writes what happened at the beginning, in the middle and at the end, in that order. A box at the top lists order words to use.
The child should write whole sentences, each one beginning with a capital letter and ending with a period. There is no right story, but the three parts must follow one another and belong to the same story. Ask your child to read the three parts aloud from start to finish: does it sound like one story, and is each part in the right place?
