OBJECTIVES:

• Identify interjections;
• Define interjections;
• Give examples of sentences using interjections
appropriately; and
• Write sentences using interjections correctly.
WHAT ARE INTERJECTIONS?

• Interjections are words that show emotions.


• They are not grammatically related to the
sentence.
• You’ll often see them used to convey surprise
(both good surprises and bad ones) or
excitement.
HOW MANY
INTERJECTIONS
ARE THERE?
A L OT !
EXAMPLES:
YI KE S ! I AL M O S T G OT H I T B Y WOW ! T H AN K S F O R T H E
A F I RE C RACKE R ! S UR P R IS E B I RT HDAY PART Y!
• You can use an interjection before or after a
sentence that explains what’s going on.
• You can also use an interjection alone, although it may
not make sense if you haven’t described the situation.
• Interjections often use exclamation points, but they don’t
necessarily have to.
• In writing a sentence, with interjections make sure to
use parentheses or commas.
EXAMPLES:
W RO N G : R I G H T:
G E E I H A D N ’ T T H O U G H T O F T H AT. GEE, I HADN’T THOUGHT OF
T H AT.
MORE EXAMPLES:

TO F I N I S H I T. TO F I N I S H I T.
POINTS TO CONSIDER:

• Make sure that you are using the interjection


properly.
• Interjections are fine to use in casual and informal
writing.
• Avoid using interjections in formal writing.
MEDICINE BY: SOFIA PABLO
Oh! Medicine, the grossest thing to me; She makes tuna casserole and
It doesn’t taste like ice cream or sweet, puts them in it;
sweet candy. I tell her, “I know your scheme
It makes me cry, it makes me slouch Mama, I won’t eat a bit!”
When I swallow it to hard, I say – OUCH! She pinches, scolds me, and
starts to cry; And then I start to say,
I can say NO, but then my Mama would say,
“Oh my, oh my!”
“You listen to me or get sick and have it
your way!” I comfort her and say, “I’ll do it, I’m
in.”
I tell her “fine” then she shouts, “Well I
never!” She jumps for joy and shouts,
She tells me I’m naughty and a little bit “NOW DRINK YOUR
clever. MEDICINE!”
