To solve this worksheet, we need to look at each sentence and decide what kind of feeling or action it shows. This tells us which punctuation mark belongs at the end.
Here is how to choose the right mark:
*
Question Mark (?): Use this when someone is asking a question. These sentences often start with words like *Did, Do, Where, Who,* or *What*.
*
Period (.): Use this for normal statements. It’s just telling you a fact or something that happened. The voice goes down at the end.
*
Exclamation Point (!): Use this when there is strong feeling, excitement, surprise, or an urgent command (like "Hurry!").
Step-by-Step Solution:
1.
"Did you find your rain boots"
* This starts with "Did," which means it is asking a question.
* Correct mark:

2.
"The duck is yellow"
* This is just stating a fact about the duck. It is a calm statement.
* Correct mark:

3.
"Hurry, it's raining"
