Let's solve this step-by-step. The task is to
underline the words that need capital letters in each sentence. Capital letters are used for:
- The first word of a sentence
- Names of people (proper nouns)
- Days of the week, months, holidays
- Titles when they come before names
- The pronoun "I"
- The beginning of direct speech
---
Sentence 1:
"tomorrow is going to be sunny. remember to wear a jacket."
-
"tomorrow" → should be capitalized because it starts the sentence.
-
"remember" → should be capitalized because it starts a new sentence.
✔ Underline:
tomorrow,
remember
---
Sentence 2:
"her house was so big. she had ten bedrooms and five bathrooms."
-
"her" → starts sentence? No, but the sentence begins with "her", so yes — it's the start of the sentence.
-
"she" → starts second sentence → needs capitalization.
✔ Underline:
her,
she
---
Sentence 3:
"their soccer team is the best in the city. they win all the time."
-
"their" → starts sentence → capitalize
-
"they" → starts second sentence → capitalize
✔ Underline:
their,
they
---
Sentence 4:
"jack's brother is really good at tennis. he plays on saturdays and never loses."
-
"jack's" → name (Jack) → must be capitalized
-
"he" → starts sentence → capitalize
-
"saturdays" → day of the week → capitalize
✔ Underline:
jack's,
he,
saturdays
---
Sentence 5:
"clean your room!" his father shouted. he was angry at all the mess.
-
"clean" → starts direct quote → capitalize
-
"his" → starts sentence → capitalize
-
"he" → starts next sentence → capitalize
✔ Underline:
clean,
his,
he
---
Sentence 6:
"amy's teacher was very kind. she gave out candy to the students on fridays."
-
"amy's" → name (Amy) → capitalize
-
"she" → starts sentence → capitalize
-
"fridays" → day of the week → capitalize
✔ Underline:
amy's,
she,
fridays
---
Final Answer (Underlined Words):

she
3.
their,

4.
