Grammar Activity Standard - ELA6C1.D: Students will demonstrate appropriate comma usage.

Grammar Mini-Lesson Using commas correctly. Rule 1: Use a comma between a city or town and a state and country. Use a comma after the state or country if the sentence continues. I lived in Augusta, Georgia, for nearly ten years. Rule 2: Use a comma between day and year. Use a comma after the year if the sentence continues. My brother celebrated his birthday October 9, 2009, with friends in Mexico. Rule 3: When writing a letter, use a comma after the greeting. Also, use a comma after the closing word. The closing word comes before the signature.
