You are here: Home Teaching Resources Build a Partnership with Parents Teaching Tip of the Week Teaching Kids The Four Different Types of Sentences (Teaching Tip #92)
In this Teaching Tip I provide a link to a short YouTube video I created. In the video I describe two ideas that will help kids better understand the four different types of sentences: statements, questions, commands, and exclamations. The first idea is an active learning strategy that includes a call-and-response chant along with a corresponding set of hand and body movements. The second is an activity idea that gives children an opportunity to practice these sentence types in a novel way. Give these ideas a try in class with your students or at home with your children.
