Bring practical editing skills to your classroom with these engaging and effective worksheets that align with key 3rd-grade language standards.

This set of five 3rd grade editing practice worksheets has been designed to give your students practice in a variety of key editing skills.

Each editing worksheet contains the following activities:

• Spelling and Punctuation – Students correct the spelling errors and punctuation errors within the passage.
• Adjectives and Verbs – Students identify the adjectives and verbs from the selection of words provided.

It is recommended that students use a colored pen or highlighter to indicate the changes needed in the passages. Alternatively, they could rewrite the entire passage correctly in their notebooks.
