Chapter 12 Punctuation

“Quotations” Quotation Marks: The “Pairs” Goals: enclose quotations/short titles Commas & Periods always go INSIDE quotation marks. Quotations are NOT used in plays or for well-known proverbs. Dialogue: Need new paragraph for each change in speaker. No quotation marks for indirect quotes.

Finish these Famous Proverbs: Don’t put all your eggs . . . Don’t throw out the baby . . . The early bird . . . A penny saved . . . Early to bed . . . A friend in need . . . Better be safe . . . Birds of a feather . . . Don’t count your chickens . . . Don’t bite the hand . . . You can’t teach an old dog . . . Laugh and the whole world laughs with you; cry . . . Children should be seen and not . . . An idle mind is . . .

“Quotations” Short Works: Articles, chapters, short stories, essays, songs, poems Exceptions: books of the Bible, report titles for class Single Quotation Marks: Used INSIDE double quotes. Caroline asked, “May we sing ‘Old MacDonald Had a Farm’ on our way to Chick-fil-a?”

“Quotations” Reminders: Commas/periods=INSIDE quotation marks Colons/semicolons=OUTSIDE quotation marks Question marks/exclamation marks=generally INSIDE quotation marks No extra period needed if the sentence ends with ? or !
