Punctuation Patrol!

The other day in class, we had a mystery guest visit our class while the students were outside at recess.  You may know them as the "Grammar Police," but around here, we have the Punctuation Patrol.  The job of the Punctuation Patrol is to reward boys and girls who use punctuation marks correctly! The reward a "job well done" with one candy for each correct mark.  When the Punctuation Patrol stopped by our classroom, the assignment that was on our desk was one in which the students had to use the words, "cookie," "cake," and "ice cream," in a complete sentence. Students were told to make sure they used commas to write those three words in a list in their sentence.

Here's a few pictures of the rewards before they were eaten up!
