Let's solve this step by step.
---
Part 1: Check if each sentence is proper (has a capital letter at the beginning and a full stop at the end)
We need to evaluate each sentence:
1.
i play cricket with my friend.
- Starts with lowercase 'i' →
✘ No capital letter
- Ends with a full stop →
✔ Yes
→
Not a proper sentence →
✘ (No checkmark)
2.
We had chicken and chips for lunch.
- Starts with capital 'W' →
✔ Yes
- Ends with a full stop →
✔ Yes
→
Proper sentence →
✔ (Put a ✔️)
3.
My cat is up the tree.
- Starts with capital 'M' →
✔ Yes
- Ends with a full stop →
✔ Yes
→
Proper sentence →
✔ (Put a ✔️)
4.
I saw a rabbit jump
- Starts with capital 'I' →
✔ Yes
- Ends with no full stop →
✘ No
→
Not a proper sentence →
✘ (No checkmark)
5.
The girl had a red hat.
- Starts with capital 'T' →
✔ Yes
- Ends with a full stop →
✔ Yes
→
Proper sentence →
✔ (Put a ✔️)
✔ So, checkmarks go in boxes for:
- We had chicken and chips for lunch.
- My cat is up the tree.
- The girl had a red hat.
✘ No checkmark for:
- i play cricket with my friend.
- I saw a rabbit jump

Part 2: Rewrite the sentences with capital letters and full stops
Now let’s fix the three sentences below:
1.
there is a big spider
→ Start with capital:
There
→ Add full stop at the end
→
There is a big spider.
2.
tim can sit on my mat
→ Start with capital:
Tim (since it's a name)
→ Add full stop
→
Tim can sit on my mat.
3.
look in the big bag
→ Start with capital:
Look
→ Add full stop
→
Look in the big bag.
