About this resource
Description
The predicate is the part of a sentence that tells what the subject does. When two sentences share the same subject, students can join their predicates with the word and to make one smooth sentence. This rewrite compound predicates worksheet gives 3rd grade students practice combining short, choppy sentences into one sentence with a compound predicate, then splitting a compound predicate back apart.
In Part A, students read four pairs of sentences that share a subject, such as Jaden cleaned his room and Jaden made his bed. They write each pair as one sentence with a compound predicate. In Part B, students do the reverse: they rewrite two sentences that have a compound predicate as two separate sentences with the same subject. The worksheet works well for a grammar lesson, a writing center, morning work, or homework.
What’s Included
- One printable rewrite compound predicates worksheet (Part A: combine four sentence pairs; Part B: split two compound predicates into two sentences each)
- A complete answer key
- Clear directions written at a 3rd grade reading level
Why It Helps Kids Learn
First, combining sentences shows children how to find the subject and the predicate, because they must notice which part repeats and which part changes. Second, joining predicates with and helps young writers replace choppy sentences with smoother, more grown-up ones. Third, splitting a compound predicate back into two sentences proves that students understand how the parts fit together, not just how to copy a pattern.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Use this 3rd grade conjunctions worksheet after a short lesson on subjects and predicates. Ask students to find two choppy sentences in their own writing and combine them with a compound predicate, or have partners write sentence pairs for each other to join. You can also challenge students to try but or or in place of and. Pair this rewrite compound predicates worksheet with the related resources below for more practice.
