Hello, friends! Today, we are diving into the colorful world of punctuation! But first, we have a fun surprise to kick off our lesson!
Right in front of you, you will see a special Mystery Punctuation Box! Inside this box, there are various punctuation symbols (like a period, comma, question mark, and exclamation mark) hidden under a soft cloth.
Form a Circle: Let's gather around and form a big circle on the carpet.
Guess the Sound: I will take one punctuation mark from the box without showing it to you. I’ll then make a sound that reminds us of that punctuation mark. For example, “! (excitement)” and “? (curiosity)”.
Raise Your Hands: When you think you know what punctuation mark I am mimicking, raise your hand! Take a guess at which one it is.
Reveal and Discuss: After a few guesses, I’ll reveal the mystery punctuation mark. We will talk about what it looks like, where we use it, and why it’s important in our sentences.
After our guessing game, we will learn how punctuation helps our writing come alive. It lets our readers know when to stop, when to get excited, and even when to ask questions.
Are you ready to have some fun and learn about punctuation? Let's get started! 🌟
