Study the 4 Types of Sentences to Build Stronger Writers!

Learning to use punctuation correctly is a critical skill for early elementary students to master. To do this, students must know about different types of sentences, like commands, exclamations, statements, and questions. When they understand these types of sentences, it becomes easier to use punctuation correctly and write clear sentences that make sense. Writing well is essential for success in upper grades, so learning about sentence types in the early years helps students become stronger, more efficient writers.

Cut and Sort to Identify Command, Exclamation, Question, and Statement Sentences

Help your students out with some hands-on grammar and writing practice. Invite your students to participate in an interactive learning experience with our cut-and-sort activity. Students will cut apart a group of 16 easy-to-read sentences and then categorize those sentences into the correct sentence type. Allowing students to manipulate these sentences physically adds another layer of understanding and retention.

Use this hands-on teaching resource when introducing your students to statements, questions, commands and exclamations.
