Exploring the Four Types of Sentences

In this video, Kerry introduces four types of sentences: declarative, interrogative, imperative, and exclamatory. Each type serves a different purpose and ends with specific punctuation. Declarative sentences make statements and end with a period. Interrogative sentences ask questions and end with a question mark. Imperative sentences give commands and can end with a period or exclamation point. Exclamatory sentences express strong feelings and end with an exclamation point. The video includes examples and a practice session to identify sentence types.
