Practice adding speech marks to sentences in this educational worksheet.

The task is to add speech marks (quotation marks) to the sentences where direct speech is used. Direct speech is a person's exact words, and these should be enclosed in quotation marks.

Here is the corrected version of the worksheet with speech marks added:

Speech Marks

Add speech marks to the sentences.

1. "Where are my shoes?" asked Pauline.
2. "Oh no!" screamed Sally.
3. Peter said, "I don't want ice cream after dinner."
4. "You must complete your homework," grumbled the teacher.
5. "Is John coming to dinner tonight?" asked his dad.
6. The old lady asked, "Do you know where the local shops are?"
7. "Take your shoes outside," said his father.
8. The coach said, "You're the best soccer player I have ever seen."
9. "Your car is so messy," said Thomas.
10. Jane said, "I don't want to go to the movies with you."

Explanation:

- Direct Speech: When someone speaks directly, their exact words are placed inside quotation marks. For example, in sentence 1, "Where are my shoes?" is Pauline's exact question, so it is enclosed in quotation marks.
- Indirect Speech: If the sentence does not include the exact words spoken but rather reports what was said, quotation marks are not needed. However, in this worksheet, all sentences involve direct speech, so quotation marks are required.
- Punctuation Placement:
- Question marks and exclamation marks go inside the quotation marks if they are part of the spoken words.
- Commas are used before or after the quotation marks when attributing the speech to someone (e.g., "I don't want ice cream after dinner," said Peter).

By following these rules, the sentences are now correctly formatted with speech marks.
