Punctuation Quiz – Interactive PowerPoint Quiz with Scoring Sheets

Punctuation Quiz – Interactive PowerPoint Resource

This interactive punctuation quiz has 16 multiple-choice questions that focus on the following punctuation marks and their rules:

•Periods (Full-Stops)

•Commas

•Colons

•Semi-Colons

•Apostrophes

•Quotation Marks

•Slashes

•Parentheses

•Exclamation Marks

•Dashes

•Hyphens

•Ellipsis

•Dot Points

•Question Marks

There are two versions of this quiz – One for individual student use and one that can be used with a whole class of students. Two interactive (and printable) scoring sheets are included (one for individuals and one for teams), and pages that display correct answers (and additional information) are built into both versions of the quiz. Instructions on how to use the quiz are also included along with some alternative activity ideas that may work more effectively with your students.

While most of the quiz questions have been designed to be universal and applicable to teachers across different countries, I have included an identical quiz in both versions that uses single quotation marks instead of double quotation marks.
