Punctuation gives sentences their shape and meaning — without it, even a well-worded sentence becomes confusing. Class 2 IEO tests capital letters (for proper nouns and sentence beginnings), full stops, question marks, exclamation marks, commas (in lists and after introductory phrases) and apostrophes (for possession and contractions). Bronze questions name the correct punctuation mark for a given purpose. Silver questions identify the correctly punctuated sentence. Gold questions require adding multiple punctuation marks to an unpunctuated passage of dialogue.
Which punctuation mark is placed at the end of a question?
Correct: C) Question mark (?)
A question mark (?) is placed at the end of any sentence that asks a question. A full stop ends a statement; an exclamation mark ends an exclamation.
Which sentence is punctuated correctly?
Correct: B) Maya, Aarav and Rohan went to the park.
Proper nouns (names of people) always begin with a capital letter. Commas separate items in a list. In option B, all names are correctly capitalised and commas are used properly.
Where should the apostrophe go in this sentence: 'The girls bag is on the table'? (Only one girl owns the bag.)
Correct: A) girl's
To show that one person owns something, add apostrophe + s: 'girl's'. If multiple girls owned the bag together, it would be 'girls''. The apostrophe goes before the s for a single owner.
Priya wrote: 'wow what a beautiful sunset exclaimed maya' — which option adds ALL the correct punctuation?
Correct: A) "Wow, what a beautiful sunset!" exclaimed Maya.
Spoken words go inside inverted commas. An exclamation mark ends the excited sentence. 'Wow' is followed by a comma. 'Maya' starts with a capital — it is a proper noun.
Which sentence uses commas correctly?
Correct: B) Before leaving home, Rohan checked his bag.
A comma is correctly placed after an introductory phrase ('Before leaving home'). Option A has an extra comma before 'and'. Options C and D incorrectly separate the subject from its verb with a comma.
