How this list was compiled: Written by hand for this page: 135 sentences, each written with one to three mistakes (a missing capital, a missing or wrong end mark, a missing comma, a misspelt word, a wrong verb or plural form, a mixed-up its, their or they're) and stored with its corrected form. Lists use a comma before and, which many American schools teach and some leave out; dates take a comma between the day and the year. Rules checked in Wikipedia's Comma and English plurals articles, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comma and en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_plurals, read 2026-09-23. No person, brand or character is named.

How it works

Each sheet draws 6 of our 135 sentences, each written with one to three mistakes and a line under it. The answer key shows every sentence fixed, so a child can check their own.

Read the full guide

Two sets

Set picks one. Capitals and end marks (66 sentences) has a missing capital and a missing or wrong end mark: can you help me. Commas, spelling, word forms (69) adds commas in lists and dates, misspelt words, its and it's, and wrong verbs and plurals: the mouses ran away.

Your own sentences

Type one sentence a line as the child should see it, an equals sign, then the sentence fixed for the key: the dog runned home = The dog ran home. Your lines replace ours.

  • The key puts a comma before and in a list (milk, eggs, and bread). If your school leaves it out, accept both.

Questions and answers

What mistakes are in the sentences?
