Da Rules:
Capitalization and PunctuationSee handout
Why?Writers use capital letters and punctuation marks to help the reader better understand what is written.
1st word of every sentence
All sentences begin with capital letters.We enjoyed reading the book.Those girls finished cleaning the counter.
Specific things/places (proper nouns)
Proper nouns begin with capital letters.Mrs. Clark asked if Amy would help.We went to Texas with my Uncle Rob.
Capital LettersThe pronoun I is always capitalized.I don’t need your help.My aunt and I picked up the papers.
Capital LettersA capital letter begins the first, last, and any important word in the title of a book, magazine, song, movie, poem, or other work.Read the last chapter of Tom Sawyer.She saw Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil when she was five years old.We watched “The Wizard of Oz.”
To capitalize or not to capitalizeDo!
• Days of the week, months of the year, holidays
• Language, nationalities, races, religions, deities, sacred terms
• Titles: the first word and every important term
• First words of direct quotes
• Historical events, periods• People’s names/titles• Brand names
Don’t• Seasons (fall, winter,
etc)• Common nouns that
refer to religious places like “church”
• Titles: do not capitalize articles (the), prepositions (of, under, over), or short connecting words (or, and) unless they start the title
• Directions (north, south, east and west- unless used in a place name)
