Color and Write: Types of Sentences

Practice identifying four types of sentences with this multi-step grammar worksheet! First and second graders will practice identifying the four main types of sentences: statements, questions, commands, and exclamations. In the first section of the worksheet, students will read a sentence, determine which type it is, and color each sentence according to the instructions. Then, learners apply their understanding by selecting two sentences and rewriting them as a different sentence type.

As students classify and transform sentences, they strengthen their grammar knowledge, writing skills, and use of correct punctuation. This worksheet helps young writers build confidence in recognizing and using a variety of sentence forms that they can incorporate into their own writing.
