Traffic Lights Punctuation Tip!

I am a big fan of shared writing!

A really effective way of demonstrating where we need full stops and capital letters is to use the ‘Traffic Light’ concept.

Green means ‘go’, which is when we use a capital letter to start a sentence, and Red means ‘stop’, which is when we need a full stop.

I have a green pen and a red pen which the children can hold, and they know when I need to use them.
