Criteria |
Check |

My sentence begins with an uppercase letter. |
|
|
My sentence ends with a period, exclamation point, or a question mark. |
|
|
All lowercase letters are formed correctly (tall letters are tall, short letters are short, and letters that are supposed to be written below the line are written below the line). |
|
|
My sentence has at least one subject (the ‘who’ or what part of the sentence). |
|
