Is there any other way to teach punctuation other than those 'correct the mistakes' activities? There is now.

The Mystery of the Missing Punctuation is a murder mystery. To solve the crime, students will have to solve the punctuation problem. And to solve the problem, they'll have to explore how punctuation can create and change meaning.

By engaging students in a story with a purpose, punctuation becomes meaningful.

Add in our beautiful Powerpoint Punctuation resources, and students develop the skills to tackle the mystery - and improve their writing. Eight presentations, seventy five slides in total, prepare students for each of the mystery's eight chapters.
