Here is a fun quiz for you all to take to see how well you understand how to use punctuation and proper grammar in a sentence. This will not be worth any marks, but I reccomend that everyone participates and takes this quiz as it will help you better understand the lesson in Language Arts next week.
Parents' SectionAs part of our grade 6 Language Arts Curriculum, it is expected that students "use punctuation appropriately to communicate their intended meaning in longer, more complex sentences, with a focus on the use of: commas to separate words in a list or after an introductory word or phrase; quotation marks in a dialogue; and some uses of the colon, semi-colon, and brackets" (The Ontario Curriculum: Language Arts, p 116). It is therefore beneficial for your children to take this quiz, determining any areas that he/she may be having difficulties. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact me via e-mail or call me anytime at the school.
