Complete Sentences

I took some pictures of myself
sitting on the sofa,
while watching and listening
to Dan in Real Life.
I want that property.
The leaves, the water, the rustic house.
I am fairly emotional
this week as it is, but that
home and land makes
me physically yearn
for the comfort and joy that
is present in the movie family.


Today's lesson from
Daily Life Language: Book Three
is: Nouns and Pronouns.
Can you recognize complete sentences?


1. the snow was just right for making snowballs in Colorado (which we really did!)
2. moist and soft and easy to pack
3. the first step, rolling big balls of snow
4. the snowballs left an irregular path in the snow

5. jane was a good worker even if she was a girl (the actual sentence in the book!)
6. the crisp air bringing rosy cheeks and tingling toes (I can't wait for winter!)

Can you capitalize and punctuate correctly? Capitalize the first word in each sentence, the names of persons, and all other proper names. Place a period, a question mark, or an exclamation mark at the end of every sentence. Use commas, apostrophes, and quotation marks where they are needed.

Nick's church softball team
ended their season last Friday
with a meal and award

ceremony.
He got MVP!
He also won last year's
Fantasy Football League
for his old college campus house
and lucky me
I get to see them every day...
until they go to the basement.


Oh! Laci and I got haircuts
yesterday.
Laci looks adorable in her new,
short cut.
