Conjunction Check In, Join, Choose and Fix
Written by Adi Ackerman, Head Teacher
"Conjunction Check In, Join, Choose and Fix" is written for 3rd Grade (Ages 8-9), and it covers Common Core L.3.1.H. If your little one is a year younger but already steady on parts of speech, the page still works. You may just need to read the instructions out loud. And if they are older and identify conjunctions never quite stuck, this is a short review rather than busywork.

How do I use this identify conjunctions worksheet?

Have your child read each sentence and find the word that joins two parts. Use the check in as a quick review after the other pages, and mark it out of 9 with the answer key.
What does this worksheet teach?
⌄
Circle conjunctions, write so or because and fix a run on sentence in a nine question check in. A conjunction joins words or ideas. A run on sentence joins two sentences with no conjunction. The directions on the page read: In Part A, circle the conjunction. In Part B, write so or because. In Part C, fix the run on sentence. Then, write your score out of 9. An answer key is included.
Can I use this identify conjunctions worksheet for homeschool or classroom?
⌄
Yes, both. We made it for 3rd Grade parts of speech, and the page works the same whether it lands on a kitchen table or a center rotation. At home, most families go through it together and talk the answers out loud, and that talking is where most of the learning happens with identify conjunctions. In class it runs well as independent work while you pull a small group. Print one copy or thirty, whichever the day needs.
What types of conjunctions do 3rd graders learn to identify?
⌄
Third graders focus on coordinating conjunctions (and, but, or, so) and begin working with common subordinating conjunctions (because, when, although, if) as part of their sentence-complexity development.
How do students identify a conjunction in a sentence?
⌄
Students look for words that connect two words, phrases, or clauses - conjunctions act as bridges between ideas, and worksheets help students spot them by asking what relationship they create.
Why is identifying conjunctions important for reading comprehension?
⌄
Recognizing conjunctions helps readers understand the logical relationship between ideas - whether two things are equal, contrasting, conditional, or causal - which improves comprehension of complex texts.

What age are identify conjunctions worksheets for?
⌄
