Why get the bundle
- Together with the other 2nd-3rd grade writing pages in the collection, conjunctions lead straight into combining sentences and longer writing.
The problem
'I wanted to play ___ it rained'
Second and third graders use 'and' for everything. 'But,' 'because' and 'or' do different jobs, and the blank forces a choice.
'And' for everything
A child writes 'I wanted to play and it rained.' The sentence runs on, but the logic is lost.
Reasons versus choices
'Because' gives a reason and 'or' offers a choice. Kids don't always pause to ask which one the sentence needs.
Close-sounding options
With several conjunctions offered, children pick the first that sounds fine, not the one that makes sense.
Each sentence has a blank and a few joining words. The child reads the whole sentence with each option, and picks the one that makes sense.

Chooses the joining word that fits
Reads a sentence with a blank and picks 'but,' 'because' or 'or' to match the meaning.
- I wanted to play but it rained
- Put on a coat because it is cold
- Do you want milk or juice
- It rained so we stayed inside
- I like cats and dogs
- She was tired but she kept running
- We ran fast but we missed the bus
Who it’s for
Built for the kitchen table and the classroom.
Parents & homeschool
Read each option aloud in the sentence. If it sounds odd, it is wrong. Listening is the strategy.
Teachers
A 2nd-3rd grade grammar task for small groups, then the assessment to check.
Developing writers
Choosing the right conjunction is the first step in writing longer, clearer sentences.
Questions
Before you buy.
What formats are available?
Task cards, an assessment, and a Google Slides deck, all with answer keys.
Is this the same as combining sentences?
Not exactly. Here the child fills one blank. Combining sentences starts with two complete sentences and joins them.
How do I get the file?
The download link appears right after checkout and lands in your inbox at the same time. One PDF with 8 pages. No account needed.
Can I print it more than once?
Yes. One teacher or one household can print unlimited copies for their own students, this year and next.
Will it print in color?
The pages are designed to print in black and white, so they print clean on any home or school printer and do not eat a cartridge.
What if it isn’t right for us?
Email support@pencillane.com within 30 days and we refund the full $3.50. No form, no questions.
