Kinds of Sentences Worksheets for Four Sentence Types

About this resource

What's inside this resource

Declarative, interrogative, imperative, and exclamatory sentences are practiced across seven worksheet pages that ask students to mark declarative sentences with a check or X, circle interrogative sentences, underline imperative sentences, add exclamation marks to exclamatory sentences, and then label mixed sentences with the correct type abbreviation (D, I, Imp, or E). A final page asks students to rewrite given sentences into a different specified type, moving from identification into sentence transformation. Once students can identify and punctuate the four sentence types, joining sentences into compound sentences takes the same grade band into combining two of them with coordinating conjunctions.

Teaching tips & learning objectives

Learning objectives

Identify declarative, interrogative, imperative, and exclamatory sentences by their function and punctuation.
Punctuate sentences correctly with a period, question mark, or exclamation point based on sentence type.

Teaching tips

Work through the four sentence types one worksheet at a time before assigning the mixed-identification and rewriting pages.
Model the sentence-rewriting page as a class before assigning it independently, since it requires more than simple identification.
