Punctuation Planet

What your child will figure out

• Choose a period, question mark, or exclamation mark by deciding whether a sentence tells, asks, or expresses strong feeling.
• Place commas between items in a list so each item is easy to identify.
• Use apostrophes in contractions and to show that something belongs to someone.
• Repair generated sentences while an adaptive difficulty dial responds to accuracy, speed, and hints.
