Say It Exactly: Writing Precise Sentences for Class 4 

This Class 4 grammar worksheet on Writing Precise Sentences teaches children how to replace vague or ordinary words with sharper, more meaningful ones. Instead of writing sentences with general words like “went,” “made a noise,” or “good,” students learn to choose precise verbs and nouns such as “zoomed,” “roared,” and “delicious.” The worksheet uses interactive activities from pages 3–8, including circle-the-word tasks, multiple-choice precision checks, rewriting exercises, and a descriptive fill-in-the-blanks passage based in a school garden.

On pages 3–5, students choose between two words in brackets—like walked/trudged, flew/soared, broke/shattered—helping them recognize how strong word choice improves clarity. The later passage on page 8 offers a rich context with details such as cool breeze, tiny butterfly, smooth pebble, and gentle water, showing children how precise vocabulary paints vivid pictures.
