Hi Penny,
If she is using the two-handed reading method, where the right hand
reads the right half of the line and then moves back to the left while
the left hand moves down, then she should be able to read a few words
ahead of what she is saying aloud and be able to pick up on the
punctuation. If she isn't using the two-handed method that is
something she  should be working  on. If she is then it's probably
just a matter  of building more speed and fluency which will come with
practice.
