This easy worksheet keeps third graders sharp on sentence types with fresh examples. Part A asks students to repair end-mark mistakes in sentences such as "Finish your vegetables before dessert?" and "When is the next bus coming!", deciding which mark fits the sentence's job.
Part B uses fill-in-the-blank items to label "Pick up your toys" as imperative and "Cats have whiskers" as declarative. Part C wraps up with true-or-false statements that check whether "Wow, that was fast!" is exclamatory. Students leave with a stronger feel for matching punctuation to a sentence's purpose.
