Fix It All: Paragraph-Level Error Correction for Class 7 

This worksheet builds real-world editing skills by guiding Class 7 learners through paragraph-level grammar correction. From verb tense fixes to punctuation, spelling, and usage errors, students become more confident in recognizing and revising errors in context — just like real editors! 

Why Paragraph-Level Correction Matters in Grammar? 

Correcting full paragraphs helps students: 
1. Recognize multiple error types in realistic writing. 
2. Improve grammar, punctuation, spelling, and word usage in one go. 
3. Think critically about how to make writing clearer and more correct. 
4. Build skills required for academic writing and exam editing tasks. 

What’s Inside This Worksheet? 

This worksheet features five integrated grammar and editing exercises: 

✏️ Exercise 1 – Grammar Correction 
Students correct verb tense and agreement errors in short passages. Example: “The boys was sitting…” → “The boys were sitting…” 

🔠 Exercise 2 – Spelling Corrections 
Learners rewrite paragraphs after fixing spelling errors like “freind,” “exibition,” and “planits” to “friend,” “exhibition,” and “planets.” 

🔤 Exercise 3 – Capitalization and Punctuation 
Each short paragraph lacks punctuation and capital letters. Students correct all mechanics, turning run-ons into complete, properly punctuated sentences. 

🔁 Exercise 4 – Confusing Words 
Using brackets, students pick the correct word from homophones and commonly confused pairs such as *their/there*, *cite/site*, and *whether/weather*. 

🧠 Exercise 5 – Mixed Errors 
Each paragraph contains one error from each category — grammar, punctuation, usage, and spelling. Students identify and correct all four in each.
