Punctuation Practice Activities

Many of my students rarely use periods and commas in their writing, which makes their ideas sound unclear and sloppy. The goal of the following tasks is for students to insert proper punctuation into the given paragraphs. I have found that the more we practice this, the more students will naturally insert punctuation into their own writing.

The first set of videos includes a narration of the text. Students are expected to identify where the reader stops – and add punctuation where necessary.

The second set of videos do not include a narration. Students are expected to identify where to insert the punctuation by reading the text.
