Interjections worksheets

Each print is a different sheet with its own answer key. You don't need to sign up.

An interjection is a burst of feeling with its own punctuation: Ouch! Hooray! Shh! It stands apart from the sentence and sets its emotion.

Three grades, one set of sentences: all three print from the same 40. Print one here, or open a grade for examples and teaching notes.

Print by grade

  1. 4th grade Core grade

    Examples and teaching notes

    Each print is a different sheet with its own answer key. You don't need to sign up.

    Fourth graders choose the interjection whose emotion matches the sentence: pain, joy, relief, disgust, surprise. The feeling is the clue, and every option is a word kids already say.

  2. 5th grade

    Examples and teaching notes

    Fifth graders match interjections precisely, L.5.1.a's home turf, and notice the punctuation choice between the exclamation point and the comma.

  3. 6th grade

    Examples and teaching notes

    Sixth graders use interjections deliberately in dialogue and narrative, where a well-placed Whoa does the work of a paragraph of description.
