Let's solve this capitalization worksheet step by step.
Task:
Rewrite each sentence with the correct capital letters.
---
Rules to remember:
1.
First word of a sentence should be capitalized.
2.
Names of months (like January, February, etc.) should be capitalized.
3.
Proper nouns (like names of holidays) should be capitalized.
4.
"I" is always capitalized when used as a pronoun.
5.
Exclamation mark at the end doesn't affect capitalization rules — just ensure the sentence starts correctly.
---
Now let’s fix each sentence:
---
1. my birthday is in july!
- First word "my" → should be "My"
- Month "july" → should be "July"
- Exclamation point is already there
✔ Corrected: *My birthday is in July!*
---
2. school starts in august.
- First word "school" → "School"
- Month "august" → "August"
✔ Corrected: *School starts in August.*
---
3. my party in is november this year.
- First word "my" → "My"
- "in is" seems like a typo — probably meant "is in"
- Month "november" → "November"
✔ Corrected: *My party is in November this year.*
(Note: The original has a grammatical error ("party in is"), but we're only fixing capitalization. So assume it's meant to be "party is in".)
---
4. christmas is in december.
- First word "christmas" → "Christmas"
- "december" → "December"
✔ Corrected: *Christmas is in December.*
---
5. the best months are april and may.
- First word "the" → "The"
- Months "april" → "April", "may" → "May"
✔ Corrected: *The best months are April and May.*
---
6. her mother is coming back in june.
- First word "her" → "Her"
- Month "june" → "June"
✔ Corrected: *Her mother is coming back in June.*
---
✔ Final Answers:
1.
My birthday is in July!
2.
School starts in August.
3.
My party is in November this year.
4.
Christmas is in December.
5.
The best months are April and May.
