Basic Punctuation in Kindergarten

August 18, 2015 by Teach Junkie

In kindergarten, students must know the name of basic punctuation marks. Here is a free printable download to help students identify when to use a period and a question mark as well as name them. Students can determine whether the sentence is a telling statement or an asking question. Finishing off the sentence with the correct punctuation mark makes it “pretty.”

Check out this featured idea from the original teacher using the link below!
