Spelling, punctuation and grammar are really important parts of the curriculum and have a huge impact on improving writing. We try to make them more fun to learn by getting creative, this activity was inspired by Kung-Fu Panda and the children passed their punctuation red belt today. Ask them to act out the moves for you with sound effects!
