Printable worksheet for Grade 2 students to practice capitalizing proper nouns, focusing on names and the pronoun "I".

Let's solve the capitalization worksheet step by step. The task is to rewrite each sentence with correct capitalization for names and the word "I".

---

Rules to Remember:

- Capitalize the first letter of a person’s name (e.g., *Alice*, *Teddy*).
- Capitalize the word "I" when it refers to oneself.
- Capitalize the first word of a sentence.
- Proper nouns like planets, cities, months, and book titles should also be capitalized.

---

Now, let’s go through each sentence:

---

1. Someday I dream of traveling to Jupiter.

- "Someday" starts the sentence → already capitalized ✔
- "I" is capitalized ✔
- "Jupiter" is a planet → proper noun → already capitalized ✔

✔ Correct as is:
Someday I dream of traveling to Jupiter.

2. My uncle henry and i are driving all the way to Montreal.

- "My" starts the sentence → capitalized ✔
- "henry" → should be Henry (a person’s name)
- "i" → should be I (always capitalize "I")
- "Montreal" → city name → already capitalized ✔

✔ Corrected:
My uncle Henry and I are driving all the way to Montreal.

---

3. For my party, I would like to invite alice, ava and philip.

- "For" starts the sentence → capitalized ✔
- "I" → capitalized ✔
- "alice", "ava", "philip" → all names → must be capitalized

✔ Corrected:
For my party, I would like to invite Alice, Ava, and Philip.

> Note: Added comma after "Ava" for clarity (Oxford comma).

4. mrs. brown does not give us homework on fridays.

- "mrs." → should be Mrs. (title)

Mrs. Brown does not give us homework on Fridays.

5. i want to visit my great-grandma marge this weekend.

7. liam noah smith was born on january 2, 2022.

- "liam noah smith" → all parts of a full name → Liam Noah Smith

8. carrie hughes wrote the book elle the Penguin.

- "carrie hughes" → Carrie Hughes (names)
- "elle" → likely a character name → Elle
- "the Penguin" → title of a book → The Penguin (titles use capitalization for major words)

✔ Corrected:
Carrie Hughes wrote the book Elle the Penguin.

> Note: Book titles often have capitalization rules. In this case, "Elle the Penguin" seems to be the title — so both "Elle" and "Penguin" should be capitalized.
