Speech marks

Speech marks go around the bits of a sentence actually being said. “Hello!”

Every time we open a set of speech marks we need to use a capital letter. “Hi!”

We also need to put some form of punctuation into each piece of dialogue before we close the speech marks. !?,. “Yo dude!”

We also need to start a new line every time a different character speaks. “Hello, Matthew!” said James. “Hi!” replied Sophie. “How are you?” he asked. “I am fine and dandy, thanks!”

Where do the speech marks go? Tom said, would you like a sweet? Tom said, “Would you like a sweet?”

I like playing football said Patrick. “I like playing football,” said Patrick.

Are you coming to my birthday party Sarah asked. “Are you coming to my birthday party?” Sarah asked.

Correctly punctuate these sentences: How are you asked Connor I’m fine thanks said Jack did you have a nice holiday yes I did replied Connor Did you Yes I went to meet David Beckham wow Connor shouted.

“How are you?” asked Connor. “I’m fine thanks,” said Jack “Did you have a nice holiday?” “I’m fine thanks,” said Jack “Did you have a nice holiday?” “Yes I did,” replied Connor “Did you?” “Yes I did,” replied Connor “Did you?” “Yes I went to meet David Beckham!” “Yes I went to meet David Beckham!” “Wow!” Connor shouted.

We need to remember: 1. To put speech marks around the words being said. 2. To start each piece of speech with a capital letter. 3. To punctuate the speech before we close it. 4. To start a new line for each new speaker.
