The statement "No M are P" means that there is no overlap between the M and P circles. 
The statement "All S are M" means that the S circle is completely within the M circle. 
Therefore, there can be no overlap between the S and P circles, and thus some S must not be P. This is represented by shading areas 3, 4, 5, and 6 in the Venn diagram. There are no other marks necessary.
