Write a small essay (100 words) without using periods, but use other sorts of punctuation like commas and semi-colons, etc. Tweet From Your Seat Using the Twitter format of 140 characters or less, summarize each piece of punctuation listed in this essay (this list is similar to The New, Well-Tempered Sentence).
*What an instructor could do with this handout is take it to class, adding their own notes throughout, and when it comes to the end of the class period, they could pick an activity from this sheet. If you wanted to add a dash of students choice (or democracy), you could ask the students to pick a number; that would be the activity to complete for next time.
