Punctuation Points
Age Range: 7 – 11
By: David Mitchell
David
Mitchell has suggested a fantastic way of encouraging children to use
punctuation in their writing. Different types of punctuation have a value
attached to them. When children are assessing their own writing (or the writing
of others), they count the total value of the punctuation that they have used.
Read more about the idea and see lots of comments from other teachers on
David's blog here.
He has
kindly allowed me to create some resources based on his idea, all of which can
