Wanted: unpunctuated text for Y5 practice!

[erebus]

Anyone know where I can find some text to print off so my Y5 DS can punctuate it?

TIA

Hmm, a passage is hard to find - I usually type out my own. There are some unpunctuated sentences here, and Derek's Full Stop is very good for demonstrating why punctuation is important, and so are these letters.

A google search (punctuate this passage) brought up this, this and this, amongst others. Hth.

Many thanks!

FInd any story you want, copy it into Word and do a find and replace full stops, commas and every other punctuation mark with a blank.

This is probably the quickest and easiest way to find the passage you want.

Thanks for the links to the letters.

Punctuation is my big issue at the moment - or lack of, and the teachers don't correct any of the work. It drives me mad because "teacher says it's ok" when I point out errors in their work.

Glad they're useful - they are quite funny!
