Circle Your Choice

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is a punctuation exercise designed to teach students how to properly end sentences with either a period or a question mark. It presents twelve sentences without ending punctuation, and the student’s task is to circle the punctuation mark that correctly completes each sentence. The choices given are between a period and a question mark, provided side by side after each sentence. The sentences vary between statements and questions, providing a mix of examples for students to work with.

The worksheet is intended to educate students on recognizing declarative sentences, which require a period, and interrogative sentences, which require a question mark. By carefully reading each sentence, students must determine the sentence’s function and choose the appropriate punctuation. This activity helps students practice their critical thinking and grammar skills, enhancing their understanding of sentence structure and the importance of punctuation in written communication. It contributes to building their foundational knowledge in English language arts.
