PUNCTUATION PAYS

These movements will make learning about punctuation more fun!



CapitalCapital letters are at the beginning of a sentence. They tell you to “GO.” Have children stand every time you come to a capital letter.

Period
Periods tell you when to stop. Sit down when you come to a period.

Whoa!
Sit like cowboys and cowgirls by straddling chairs. When you come to a period, children pretend to pull back on the reins as they say, “Whoa!”

Question Mark
When you come to a question mark, put your index finger on your head and shrug your shoulders.

Exclamation Point
Put your fist in the air for an exclamation mark.

Comma
Hop for a comma.

Quotations
Two fingers in the air and wiggle.

*Let children come up with their own movements for punctuation.


ABC?
Say the abc’s according to the punctuation marks.




Punctuation Detectives
Use glass pebbles to highlight punctuation.


Twist the end of a pipe cleaner and use to find punctuation marks.
