5 worksheets. Answer sheets included. These worksheets have been designed as a general knowledge exercise and as a way to scaffold students answers into a full sentence. Instead of ‘it lives in the sea’, students are encouraged to write the sentence in full, providing sentence context and their explanation. I have found this is a helpful resource for those students who are reluctant to use ‘because’ in a written and / or verbal capacity.
