    Examples and teaching notes

    Each print is a different sheet with its own answer key. You don't need to sign up.

    People's names, days of the week, and months of the year all wear capital letters, because each one names a specific person or time. First graders pick the correctly capitalized sentence.

  2. 2nd grade

    Examples and teaching notes

    Second graders capitalize names, days, and months without prompting and extend the rule to titles that travel with names: Ms. Lee, Grandpa Tom, Uncle Omar. The contrast case, seasons staying lowercase, sharpens the rule's edge.
