Spelling and Punctuation Final

Your spelling and punctuation final has three parts. It is on Tuesday.

Part 1 is 10 sentences that you need to correct. Please remember that in English we NEVER put a puncutation symbol like a question mark or exclamation point at the beginning of a sentence, only the end. If you put it at the beginning I will mark it wrong. That is only a Spanish form.

Here is a link to your previous punctuation quiz to help you study:
