We are punctuation marks.
We are the superheroes found on Sentence Street!
We will show you how and where to use punctuation in sentences.
Let us guide you in reading and writing.
We will help you to write clear and meaningful sentences, and to read punctuation with understanding.
We are nine punctuation marks who will introduce ourselves today.
There are more of us, but you can meet them later.
We hope you will ask us for help when making sentences.
You will find me at the start of:
a list,
or a title,
or an explanation,
or to introduce something.
Call me: Colon.
My name is Comma. I help you to pause between thoughts, and I also separate items in a list.
I love exercising, reading and playing.
Would you tell me about the things you love doing?
Curiosity is my super power!
My mission is to ask questions and find answers!
Please call me Question Mark, would you?
I am Semicolon; I am a guard on Sentence Street. I'm a longer pause than a comma, but I'm not a full stop.
I sometimes play Cupid by helping lonely clauses connect and become friends instead of strangers.
I can also separate items in a long list to avoid confusion.
When a letter or two is missing from a word, I'll stand in for the letters.
I also show possession or that something belongs to someone.
Call me Apostrophe.
"I am Quotation Mark and my super power is direct speech!"
When you see me wrapped around the words someone says, it means those are the exact words that the person spoke (or thought).
I open and close quotations. Sometimes I show sarcasm.
Hey there!
I am Exclamation Mark, the emotion mark! I express strong emotions.
I express surprise and excitement! I shout, scream, laugh hysterically and wail!
I am always willing to help you express your strong feelings.
We are three.
... 3 dots that represent missing or unsaid words.
This happens when people are unsure of what to say next and don't complete their sentence.
We are called ellipsis.
I end sentences. I am the stop indicator.
Without me, everyone on Sentence Street will run out of breath and need to visit a doctor often.
My name is Period, or Full Stop.
People like to say that Ellipsis and Period are cousins.
Others say Question Mark, Exclamation Mark and Quotation Mark are siblings.
There are those who say Comma and Apostrophe are twins.
What do you think?
