Periods and question marks quiz for first graders (with answers).

📚 Quick Study Guide

• 🛑 Periods: Use a period (.) at the end of a sentence that makes a statement. For example: The dog is brown.
• ❓ Question Marks: Use a question mark (?) at the end of a sentence that asks a question. For example: Is the dog brown?
• 💡 Tip: Read the sentence out loud. If your voice goes down at the end, it's probably a statement (period). If your voice goes up, it's probably a question (question mark).
• ✍️ Practice: Try writing your own sentences and deciding whether they need a period or a question mark.
