I began by making an anchor chart with four basic punctuation marks, period, exclamation point, question mark, and comma.
Each mark had a short phrase addressing what their job is in writing.
After that, we discussed what each one does and came up with examples. I modeled some and let her write some as well. Then I hung it up in our tutoring room!
The finished product is kind of a jumbled mess if you weren't there to see how it was made but my student was very engaged and able to verbalize what each punctuation does as well as come up with examples. She loved being a part of making the poster as opposed to me just making it and telling her what's what.
