  Actually - brilliant people that you are - I have just had an idea. I am
going to get my Year 7 bottom sets in English to design and make punctuation
posters for the whole school - I'll put them up in all the English teaching
classrooms and so they will have to be accurate - I can do it in groups -
the pupils could be matched into groups of 3 - one to do full stops, one
commas, one speech marks etc etc................................I'll see how
it goes after half-term.
  We can printin colour at school and so they can use colour or draw them -
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
