Punctuation - Exclamation Marks

Exclamation marks have two simple rules:

  1. Interjections like: "Ouch!"
  2. Ending exclamatory sentences (the ones that express emotion), like:  "We won the elections!"

Do not forget to avoid the use of exclamation marks in formal writing. Now let's try some exercises:

Go away I hate you 
Come on
What a fantastic house you have
Good heavens
Help
Oh my god
Stop it


After that is completed, you will think on all those real life situations in which exclamation marks are used and with a list of minimum 10, you will dramatize each context and explain the importance of the use of that punctuation sign.
