This illustrated punctuation workbook supports students with dyslexia, ADHD or other specific learning difficulties to develop their punctuation skills via inquiry-based learning.

Using humour and fun cartoons to teach punctuation, the book encourages students to engage in active learning to make their own connections about punctuation rather than rote memorisation of rules. The jokes and unexpected punch lines also help make punctuation more fun and less intimidating. Using this workbook and inquiry-based learning the student gradually becomes proficient in generalising the specific rules they have learnt, detecting patterns from examples and inferring rules.

Tricky Punctuation in Cartoons complements school literacy programmes and helps equip students who learn differently with additional ways to remember tricky punctuation rules.

Reviews

This book is brilliant! A superb learning tool - engaging, humorous and thoughtfully constructed. The visuals are spot on and the text snappy and informative. Full of punctuation tips and easily accessible - this book will help all children grasp and consolidate much more than the basics of punctuation! Teachers will love this book. -- Dr. Gavin Reid, Independent Psychologist and Author
