Transition Words in Narrative Writing

Transition words help make writing flow smoothly, connecting ideas, sentences, and paragraphs. Transition words in narrative writing often indicate sequence, time, or place. In this language and vocabulary worksheet, learners will read short narrative passages and choose the transitions that best connect the ideas and sentences. Designed for a middle school curriculum, this grammar worksheet is part of a larger focus on writing with a variety of transition words, phrases, and clauses that convey sequence and signal shifts from one time-frame or setting to another.
