What does this worksheet teach?
⌄
Circle parallel versions, rewrite unbalanced sentences and write a new parallel series. The directions on the page read: Part A: Circle the letter of the one version with correct parallel structure. Part B: Rewrite each sentence on the 2 lines so its parts are parallel. An answer key is included.
Can I use this parallel structure worksheet for homeschool or classroom?
⌄
Yes, both. We made it for 7th grade sentences, and it works the same at home or at school. At home, a student can work through it alone and then go over it with you, which shows quickly what is solid and what needs another look. In class it works as independent practice, homework or a warm-up, and you can print one copy or a full set.
What is parallel structure?
⌄
It means the items in a list or pair share the same form, such as all nouns, all adjectives or all verbs in one tense. The crew packed tents, carried water and brought extra rope is parallel.
How do you keep a comparison parallel?
⌄
The two things compared should be the same kind of thing and take the same form. Students underline the part that does not match and rewrite the whole sentence.
What is parallel structure with either or and not only but also?
⌄
The words after each half must have the same grammatical form. Students rewrite unbalanced sentences so both halves match.
Is there a review sheet?
⌄
Parallel Structure Review has three parts: circle the parallel version, rewrite sentences and write a parallel series.
