Complete and Incomplete Sentences Task Cards

A Variety of Ways to Prepare This Sentence Structure Resource

Because this resource includes an answer sheet, we recommend printing one copy of the entire file. Then, make photocopies of the blank recording sheet for students to complete.  

You can also turn this teaching resource into a sustainable activity! Print a few copies of the recording sheet on cardstock and slip them into dry-erase sleeves. Students can record their answers with a dry-erase marker, then erase and reuse them. 

Additionally, project the task cards onto a screen and work through them as a class by having students record their answers in their notebooks.
