different types of
sentences and how they

• An imperative sentence is a
command or polite request.
• It ends in a period or
exclamation mark.
• Examples:
1. Close the door.(command)
2.Please be quiet.
(polite request)
• An exclamatory
sentence expresses
great emotion or
excitement.
• It ends in an
exclamation mark.
• Example:

medal!
 An interrogative sentence asks a question.

It ends with a question mark.

By using the four types of sentences in your writing,
you can make your paragraphs more interesting.

Read the sample paragraph below.

My favorite type of fast food is pizza. I could

eat pizza morning, at noon, or at night.

double cheese on top. I wish I could order a
pizza right now.

Let’s see how to use the four types of sentences and make it
more interesting to the reader.
