Punctuation Flags

English Language Arts (ELA) - Kindergarten

Make Flags with Periods, Question Marks & Exclamations


Students create flags featuring period, question mark, and exclamation mark to learn punctuation in a fun, hands-on activity.

Punctuation Flags

Goal

Punctuation: L.K.2.B

It's craft time! We will make three flags, each with a different punctuation mark: a period, a question mark, and an exclamation mark. In this activity, students will have fun making the flags while becoming more familiar with the shapes of these punctuation marks.


Activity Prep

  • Download & print the PDF below

  • 3 Craft Popsicle Sticks (straw or unsharpened pencil could be the alternative)

  • Glue

  • Scissors (*Please help with scissors as needed.)



How to Make

Let's create punctuation flags!

  1. Download the PDF and print it out.

  2. Carefully cut out the 3 flags from the printed paper. (*Please ask for assistance with scissors if needed.)

  3. Fold each flag at the center.

  4. Apply glue to the back of the flag.

  5. Place a popsicle stick (or another suitable alternative) at the folded line.

  6. Secure the popsicle stick and fold the paper completely.

  7. Finish the other flags. Now your flags are ready to use!
