Teaching tips & learning objectives
Learning objectives
Capitalize the first word of a sentence when rewriting it correctly.
Capitalize the pronoun 'I' wherever it appears in a sentence.
Capitalize proper nouns, including people's names and place names, when rewriting a sentence.
Teaching tips
Assign one worksheet per day across two school weeks, since all ten pages share the same format and difficulty level.
Have students underline the words that need a capital letter before rewriting the sentence, to separate the identifying step from the writing step.
Watch for the proper-noun sentences (names like Sara and Monica, places like Berlin and Tokyo) since these require applying the capitalization rule beyond the sentence-starter pattern.
Skills covered
Sentence-initial capitalization -- students identify and correct the first word of each of sixty lowercase sentences.
Pronoun capitalization -- students capitalize the pronoun 'I' across multiple sentences per worksheet.
Proper-noun capitalization -- students capitalize people's names and place names embedded within otherwise lowercase sentences.
Good to know
Questions teachers ask about this resource
Do all ten worksheets test the same capitalization rule, or different ones?
Each worksheet mixes all three rules together -- sentence-starter capitals, the pronoun 'I,' and proper nouns such as names and places -- so every page gives the same combined practice rather than isolating one rule at a time.
