Punctuation and Text


I disagree with the idea of using punctuation in the text I send because it is an informal writing. Texting should be use as a quick tool of communication any time of the day and where ever you are. Using punctuation will only delay the conversation, and frustrate  the users. In addition after reading the article, I strongly agree that texting can be use without proper grammar,  and children still will be able to acquire new writing skills. Texting should be use an easy way to communicate without punctuation concerns. Texting can be an excellent tool to use in the classroom and in school.

  1. I completely understand your view point that texting is informal, which is true, and punctuation should not be taken as strict. I do think that simple punctuation would be beneficial to our conversations even if its informal, just to keep things easier to understand and keep the flow going. I agree that texting would be a great tool in the class room!
