Sample sentences

Archer brought home some examples of different types of sentences from a school assignment this week.  His notebook paper was divided into fourths, each with its own heading.  The sentences in the sections, thought, have a lot in common.  (All punctuation is reproduced as in the original.)

Declarative
"I like playing on the Wii."
"My dad only allows 1 hr. a day."

Interrogative
"Do you like playing a Wii?"
"Do you have a Wii?"

Exclamatory
"It's fun to play a Wii!"
"We just got 'Endless Ocean: Blue World'!"

Imperative
"Buy a Wii, they cost $249.99 at Target."
"Buy Game Discs."
