Mark My Words

On this snowy day, Pop-Pop sent out some trivia questions for everyone to enjoy.  One of them that I thought the children could tackle was this:

There are 14 punctuation marks in English grammar. Can you name at least half of them?

We had some pretty good answers.  But we also had some outliers, like “division” and “decimal point”.  So I explained to the children that punctuation marks are “the kind of marks that you find in a story”.  Robyn’s next guess?  “Book marks!”
