Bullet Basics

This worksheet introduces bullet points as an organizational tool in writing. It explains that good bullet points should be appealing, concise, thematically related, grammatically parallel, and used sparingly. An example list about dogs prompts students to create their own bullet points based on the qualities of dogs. It also provides a grammar tip: if the introductory sentence is complete, it should end with a colon.

Completing this worksheet helps students understand the function and formatting of bullet points in writing. It reinforces writing clarity and encourages them to identify key information quickly. By organizing ideas using bullet structure, students improve their composition and summarization skills. These foundational skills also enhance reading comprehension and expository writing.
