The punctuation station is a great place to work with capitalization and punctuation.
I transfer the sentences from the workbook pages on sentence strips.
Then, I provide beans for periods, elbow macaroni and beans for question marks,
and cut up spaghetti noodles and beans for exclamation points.
You could also use pompom balls and pipe cleaners
as periods, question marks, and exclamation points.
You could also include some sentences to unscramble and punctuate.
Student recording sheets extend this activity and provide accountability.
