When is myself used wrongly?

Myself is wrong when it replaces I or me, as in Jaden and myself recorded the episode. It is right only when it points back to I in the same clause, as in I taught myself.

What do students do on the myself sheet?

They read each sentence about a student podcast and write OK if the underlined pronoun is correct. If it is not, they write the pronoun that should replace it.

Intensive and reflexive pronouns end in self or selves. An intensive pronoun adds emphasis and can be removed, while a reflexive pronoun points back to the subject of its clause. There are 2 sheets for 8th grade here, each with an answer key. Use Intensive Pronouns to Add Emphasis is set around a community mural, and When Not to Use Myself follows students recording a podcast. Both sheets practice L.8.1.
