The Punctuation Song
Tune: Jolly Old St. Nicholas
Idea and Lyrics by Mrs. Whitehead

period
I am a period.
I look just like a dot.
Every time you see me
You must stop!

question mark
I am a question mark.
I ask a lot of things.
Every time you see me
I wonder what it'll be!

comma
I am a comma.
I look just like a hook.
Every time you see me
Slow down and look!

exclamation point
I'm an exclamation point.
I'm full of surprise.
Every time you see me
Widen your eyes!

Thank you to Cody, Courtney, Maddy, Sara and Brandon
for modeling the punctuation marks!

Ilze Lucis and the Primary and One teachers from Sambro Elementary School
in Sambro, Nova Scotia, Canada shared these verses they wrote:


question mark
I am a question mark.
You might ask me why?
Every time you see me
Your voice will go up high.

quotation marks
We are quotation marks.
We're in groups of two.
Every time you see us
Talking is what we do.

Ilze, thank you for sharing!
