How do you write a declarative sentence?

A declarative sentence makes a statement. It tells something and ends with a period (.).

Here's the breakdown:

1. Subject: Who or what is the sentence about?

2. Verb: What is the subject doing?

3. Object: (Optional) What is the subject acting upon?

Here are some examples:

* The cat sat on the mat. (Subject: cat, Verb: sat, Object: mat)

* My favorite color is blue. (Subject: color, Verb: is, Object: blue)

* The sun is shining brightly. (Subject: sun, Verb: is shining, Object: brightly)

* I love to eat pizza. (Subject: I, Verb: love, Object: to eat pizza)

Key things to remember:

* Simple structure: Declarative sentences are usually simple and direct.

* Period at the end: They always end with a period.

* Statement of fact: They state something as a fact, even if it's an opinion.

Now you can write your own declarative sentences!
