Just a quick post about using linking words in writing.
We've worked on introductions, reasons and closings.
We added some linking words to our writing journals,
but my kids weren't using the words.
So, I created this sentence matching activity for them.
I put the kids into groups of three.
Each group was given six sentences.
Three of the sentences were reasons
and the other three were sentences with linking words.
All six sentences were about the same topic,
so my kids had to make sure the linking word sentence
matched the reason.
It's a short activity that can be completed
independently or with partners.

Have a great weekend!
Great practice...my students often have trouble choosing the correct linking word, so the extra practice is perfect.
