Let's solve the 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
- "july" → month name →
July
- Exclamation mark stays
✔ Corrected: My birthday is in July!
---
2. school starts in august.
- "school" → first word →
School
- "august" → month →
August
✔ Corrected: School starts in August.
---
3. my party in is november this year.
- "my" → first word →
My
- "in" → extra word? Let's check: “my party
in is november” → seems like a typo. Likely meant:
"my party is in November this year."
- So fix: remove extra "in", and capitalize "November"
✔ Corrected: My party is in November this year.
---
4. christmas is in december.
- "christmas" → holiday name →
Christmas
- "december" → month →
December
- First word →
Christmas (already capitalized)
✔ Corrected: Christmas is in December.
---
5. the best months are april and may.
- "the" → first word →
The
- "april" → month →
April
- "may" → month →
May
✔ Corrected: The best months are April and May.
---
6. her mother is coming back in june.
- "her" → first word →
Her
- "june" → month →
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.
6.
Her mother is coming back in June.
