Description
This Statements Worksheet helps 2nd graders learn what a statement is and how to write one. A statement is a telling sentence. It gives information about someone or something, it begins with a capital letter, and it ends with a period. Children who can turn an asking sentence into a telling sentence are learning how word order changes the meaning of a sentence, a skill they use every time they read and write.
Students read four questions, such as “Is the bright red kite stuck in the tall tree?” Next to each question is the word the new sentence must start with. Students move the words around so the sentence tells something instead of asking something, then end it with a period. A worked example at the top shows exactly how one question becomes a statement. Use this 2nd grade punctuation worksheet as a mini-lesson, a morning warm-up, a literacy center or homework.
What’s Included
- One printable 2nd grade statements worksheet with a worked example
- Four questions to rewrite as telling sentences, each with a given starting word
- Two full writing lines for every answer
- A full answer key with every rewritten statement
Why This Worksheet Helps
First, the given starting word gives every item one clear answer, so students focus on word order and end marks instead of guessing. Second, each statement uses the very same words as its question, so children see that moving a single word can change a question into a statement. Third, writing the whole sentence on the lines gives real practice with a capital letter at the start and a period at the end.
Teachers and parents can build on this statements worksheet all week. Say a question out loud, such as “Is the dog hungry?”, and have students answer with the matching statement. Sort sentence strips into a question pile and a telling pile. During read-alouds, stop at a question in the story and ask students to change it into a statement. Have partners trade questions and rewrite each other’s sentences.
