Sentence Writing Practice Problems (1st Grade)

📚 Topic Summary

A sentence is a group of words that tells a complete thought. Every sentence begins with a capital letter and ends with a punctuation mark (like a period, question mark, or exclamation point). To write a good sentence, you need a subject (who or what the sentence is about) and a verb (what the subject is doing).
