This one is lots harder - students have to sort the run-ons from the legal sentences (such as ones with comma and "but" or a semicolon). The teacher has lots of other worksheets online.
Another already-a-word-document worksheet with examples of spliced sentences is here.
This one I rather like 'cause of its nice layout - a little extra effort makes a big difference. (Okay, and it does what I like to do and takes examples from literature, even if Captain Underpants isn't usually where I go with it...)
