Sentence Sense

This worksheet requires students to read sentences and determine whether each one is declarative, imperative, interrogative, or exclamatory. Additionally, students are asked to add the correct punctuation to each sentence, reinforcing both sentence type recognition and punctuation skills. The sentences revolve around a holiday and picnic theme, creating a relatable context for students to engage with. This activity combines grammar identification with practical application of punctuation.

By working through this worksheet, students sharpen their ability to discern different sentence functions and apply the appropriate punctuation. This dual focus on grammar and punctuation strengthens students’ overall language abilities and prepares them for more complex sentence structuring. Analyzing sentence types enhances their critical thinking as they consider each sentence’s purpose and tone. The holiday theme also keeps the activity lighthearted and relevant, making learning enjoyable and effective.
