    Kung Fu Punctuation

    based on Ros Wilsons work


    Prcis from Write on Target
    Refer to the punctuation pyramid and make sure children
    know what they should be using at their level.
    Teach the children the physical actions for the signs.
    Read out first sentence. (there is a list in the book, but
    the sentences in here are made up and you can add more.)
    Give children 10 secs to work out punctuation then ask
    children for first punctuation (action + HUH!) etc.

    The PowerPoint will put in the punctuation as you click so


    you can see what their action would produce.
    Signs needing 2 actions e.g. ? need HUH! HUH! as they
    do the two actions.
