To solve this worksheet, we need to look at each sentence and fix the errors. The main errors here are missing capital letters (at the start of sentences, for names, places, and days) and missing punctuation (like periods or question marks at the end).
Let's go through them one by one:
1.
Sentence: "we went fishing off the coast of california on sunday morning"
*
Fixes: Capitalize "We" (start of sentence), "California" (place name), and "Sunday" (day of the week). Add a period at the end.
*
Result: We went fishing off the coast of California on Sunday morning.
2.
Sentence: "i am so excited to see my family for the holidays"
*
Fixes: Capitalize "I". Add a period at the end.
*
Result: I am so excited to see my family for the holidays.
3.
Sentence: "jerry sam and stephen took a walk to lacy park"
*
Fixes: Capitalize names "Jerry", "Sam", and "Stephen". Capitalize "Lacy Park" (place name). Add commas between the names in the list. Add a period at the end.
*
Result: Jerry, Sam, and Stephen took a walk to Lacy Park.
4.
Sentence: "when are we going to disneyland"
*
Fixes: Capitalize "When" (start of sentence). Capitalize "Disneyland" (place name). Change the period to a question mark because it is a question.
*
Result: When are we going to Disneyland?
5.
Sentence: "i live on lightview st corson city"
*
Fixes: Capitalize "I". Capitalize "Lightview St" and "Corson City" (address/place names). Add a period at the end.
*
Result: I live on Lightview St, Corson City.
6.
Sentence: "tara and stacey went to the mall on saturday"
*
Fixes: Capitalize names "Tara" and "Stacey". Capitalize "Saturday" (day of the week). Add a period at the end.
*
Result: Tara and Stacey went to the mall on Saturday.
