Punctuation Rules for Direct Speech





        ●     Use a comma to separate the speaking words from the rest of
              the sentence

        ●     Capitalize the first word inside the quotation marks

        ●     Put periods and commas INSIDE the quotation marks

        ●     Example: "I'm hungry," Tom said to his mom.
        ●     Remember: Quotation marks are like special speech containers!

        ●     Can you create your own direct speech sentence?
