📖 Quick Study Guide: Understanding the Last Word

• 🗣️ A sentence is a group of words that shares a complete thought.
• 🛑 Sentences always end with punctuation, like a period (.), a question mark (?), or an exclamation point (!).
• 🎯 The 'last word' in a sentence is the very last word you read before the ending punctuation.
• 🧠 Identifying the last word helps us understand when a thought is finished and improves reading fluency.
• ✍️ For young learners, practicing this skill builds a strong foundation for both reading and writing complete sentences.
