Proofreading Punctuation

Proofreading Punctuation

Aim of the Game:

An area that I find some children struggle with is proofreading, editing and finding mistakes in sentences. This is a tricky skill so I’ve created this activity to try and help.

What do you need?

  • Milk bottle tops with punctuation marks written on them.
  • Sentences with each word cut up separately.

How to Play:

  • Put all the words out on a table or the floor.
  • Rearrange the words into a sentence that makes sense.
  • Finally choose which punctuation milk bottle top is needed to add in any missing punctuation.
