About the Writing a Conclusion Worksheet

The Writing a Conclusion worksheet enhances students' comprehension and writing skills through analysis of an informative text about blue whales. This interactive and printable worksheet, that aligns with the Common Core State Standards, Writing a Conclusion helps students understand how to select concluding statements that effectively summarize both factual content and thematic elements of a scientific text. Through examination of a passage that combines statistical data with conservation concerns, students learn to identify conclusions that capture both the informational and emotional aspects of the content.

Students evaluate multiple conclusion options that range from irrelevant facts to appropriately comprehensive summaries, learning to recognize how an effective conclusion should encapsulate both the factual information and broader implications presented in the text. The worksheet challenges students to think critically about how conclusions can reflect not only specific details but also the overall message and significance of the passage, particularly when dealing with scientific and environmental topics.
