Learning Objective

I can use commas correctly to separate items in a series.

  • 1

    The comma is a piece of punctuation that has many functions, but its broad superpower is separating sentence elements.

  • 2

    Commas can separate elements of lists, dates, and set off things at the beginning of sentences.

  • 3

    Commas can't go at the end of a sentence; they only go in the middle to separate elements.
