What's Included in the Finish the Story Activity

• Sentence Corrections: Page 1 of the document contains 7 sentences, each missing a capital letter at the beginning and a full stop at the end. Students read and identify the errors.

• Book Creation: Teachers print pages 2 through 9 and staple them together to form a booklet. Each page in the booklet has a number corresponding to the sentences on page 1.

• Copying and Editing: Students copy the sentences onto the corresponding pages in the booklet, correcting the punctuation as they go.

• Illustration: Once the sentences are corrected and copied, students color in the pictures to complete their storybook.
