Cohesive devices worksheets for Grade 6 ELA Writing help students create clearer connections between ideas by using transitional words, pronouns, repeated key terms, and logical sentence-to-sentence links. This Ontario resource also addresses sentence clarity, run-on sentences, and paragraph revision.

Build Cohesion Between Ideas

Students identify how transitional words, pronouns, and repeated key terms create cohesion in a text. They examine how words and references connect ideas from one sentence to the next, developing a more precise understanding of how cohesive devices support clear writing.

Check Logical Connections

The activities ask students to determine whether sentence-to-sentence links are logical and clear. Specific organizational relationships include cause-effect, compare-contrast, and sequence, giving students practice recognizing how ideas relate and how those relationships affect the flow of a text.

Revise for Flow and Clarity

Students use cohesive devices to write sentences that avoid run-on sentences and confusion. They also revise a short paragraph by selecting words that improve flow and clarity, connecting cohesion skills directly to practical writing revision.

Flexible Practice Format

The worksheet includes multiple-choice questions, true-or-false questions, short-answer responses, a reading passage, matching, a cloze passage, an essay, and a Did You Know section. Students apply cohesive writing concepts through recognition, explanation, revision, and written response tasks.
