Statement Or Question

Periods #5

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is an educational tool designed to help students learn about the use of different ending punctuation marks. It lists eleven sentences and asks students to circle the correct punctuation mark—period, question mark, or exclamation point—that should be used to end each sentence. The sentences are structured to include both statements and questions, allowing students to practice distinguishing between the two. Each sentence is followed by a set of punctuation marks, from which only one is correct for the given sentence.

The worksheet aims to teach students the fundamental differences between statements, questions, and exclamatory sentences through punctuation. By deciding whether a sentence is declarative, interrogative, or exclamatory, students learn to use the correct punctuation mark that matches the intent of the sentence. This exercise enhances their reading comprehension skills and helps them understand how punctuation affects the tone and clarity of written communication. Ultimately, the activity contributes to the development of their grammar proficiency and written expression.
