    Margaret Adams contributes a document describing punctuation cards that she uses to teach students about punctuation. The cards each represent a different punctuation mark. Students work in pairs to identify what mark each card represents. Adams then reads a piece of unpunctuated text aloud and students hold up the card when they think the corresponding mark belongs in the text. This allows students to practice identifying and using different punctuation marks in context. The document provides examples of the cards and explains how Adams uses them to engage students in learning punctuation.

    Margaret Adams, the contributor, explains …

    ƒ I am attaching some punctuation cards that I laminate and use with


    students (as a fun way of practising punctuation).

    Students have to work out what punctuation mark each card


    represents (usually working in pairs).

    I then give out cards (according to level) along with a piece of


    unpunctuated text.

    I read the text out loud to the students and they have to stand up
    and wave their card when they think their punctuation mark should
    go in. It is possible to use all or a selection of cards, depending on
    what I am teaching.

    Answers
    Card 1 - capital letter Card 2 - full stop
    Card 3 - speech mark Card 4 - apostrophe
    Card 5 - comma Card 6 - semi colon
    Card 7 - colon Card 8 - question mark
