Checking Boxes

Worksheet Description

The “Statement or Question” worksheet provides a series of sentences and asks students to determine the type of each sentence. They are given two options to choose from: “statement” or “question.” To indicate their choice, students must check the appropriate box next to each sentence. This activity allows students to practice distinguishing between declarative sentences that provide information and interrogative sentences that ask for information.

This worksheet is intended to teach students how to identify statements and questions based on sentence structure and punctuation. It reinforces the concept that statements typically end with a period and provide information, while questions usually end with a question mark and request information. The skill of differentiating between these two sentence types is essential for language development, reading comprehension, and effective communication. This exercise also helps students to improve their understanding of punctuation and its role in conveying the function of a sentence.
