Six Punctuation Lessons (. ! ? , ' ""), worksheets and SOW

This is a very thorough and lively Literacy powerpoint, worksheets and SOW. (There are over 80 slides on the ppt). It is aimed at level 4 KS3 children but could be used with any KS2 or KS4 group that need help with punctuation. Each lesson begins with a short activity to assess basic knowledge, then rules / tips are introduced clearly, followed by a whiteboard quiz (e.g. multiple choice questions) and ending with an independent activity. All worksheets needed are included and answers to quizzes and activities are given so that self-marking and peer-marking is encouraged. At the start of the unit, children make a foldable triangle and they draw each piece of punctuation, each week, in a section of the triangle. This then, folds open for children to write punctuation tips / examples as the plenary to each lesson. At the end of the 6 lessons, children are shown how to make a punctuation pyramid (all templates provided) containing definitions and examples of punctuation in use. This could then be used cross-curricular. I have also made a level 5 and above version of this, available to buy separately.
