With interactive activities such as Multiple Choice Questions, True or False, Fill in the Blanks, Sentence Rewriting, and Paragraph Writing, learners explore how commas clarify meaning, separate ideas, and make sentences flow smoothly.

Why Commas Matter in Grammar?  

Commas are small but mighty—they bring order to complex sentences. For Class 6 learners, this topic is important because:  
1. Commas separate words in a series or list.  
2. They mark pauses in clauses and after introductory phrases.  
3. They help prevent confusion and run-on sentences.  
4. They strengthen writing fluency and structure in essays and stories.
