Teaching punctuation has never been easier than with this Year 4 Punctuating Direct Speech Teaching PPT. Beginning with how we use inverted commas, it also covers when to use a capital letter, when to use punctuation and which punctuation and starting a new line when a new character speaks.

With a sequenced teaching structure, children are shown examples of questions which link directly to the teaching. The answers are also provided for you to discuss with your pupils.

Ideal for use with your whole class, this PPT can help you to structure the teaching of punctuation. Suitable for delivery by teachers and support staff.
