Proofreading Practice #3

Practice makes perfect, and the proof is in proofreading! Fourth- and fifth-grade students practice using proofreading marks on this revising writing worksheet.

Students evaluate spelling, grammar, and punctuation mistakes in two short paragraphs. There is a key that features six common proofreading marks: capitalize letter, lowercase letter, insert word, insert period, insert comma, and correct spelling.

To improve as writers, students need to learn to be good editors. Reinforce editing skills by using all 10 Grammar Brush-up for Fifth Graders worksheets, which you find by clicking on “See in a set” below.
