End Punctuation

ISBN: 9781608187331

An illustrated guide to the punctuation marks found at the end of all sentences, including descriptions and examples of how to properly use statements, exclamations, and questions.

Part of the Punctuate It! series

Rules, rules, rules! English grammar is full of rules. How are we supposed to remember when or why to use all those pesky punctuation marks? Why bother, anyway, in an age of texting and rampant emojis? When a proper foundation is laid, all forms of communication benefit: Punctuate It! gently instructs young readers (and writers) to think carefully about the marks they see and to choose their punctuation to create meaningful sentences. Vibrant, off-the-wall illustrations lend visual appeal, and "Punctuation Practice" sessions offer opportunities for interacting with key ideas presented in each short chapter. A brief activity closes each book.
