📚 Quick Study Guide: Arranging Sentences
- 💡 What is a Sentence? A sentence is a group of words that tells a complete thought. It always makes sense on its own.
- 📝 Starting Strong: Every sentence begins with a capital letter.
- 🛑 Ending Right: Sentences end with a punctuation mark: a period (.), a question mark (?), or an exclamation mark (!).
- 🧩 Word Order Matters: Words need to be in the correct order for the sentence to make sense. Think about who or what is doing the action, and then what the action is.
- 🔍 Look for Clues: Often, the "who" or "what" (the subject) comes first, followed by the "doing word" (the verb).
