About this worksheet
Capitalization gives readers signals about where a sentence begins and which words are specific names. Second graders may remember the first word of a sentence but miss names in the middle, or they may capitalize every interesting noun. This worksheet focuses on the capitalization rules students use most often: sentence beginnings, people, places, days, months, and titles. Every item is a full sentence so children must look across the whole line, not only at the first word. Students choose corrected sentences, identify missing capitals, and decide why a word needs a capital letter. Encourage your child to scan twice: first for the beginning of the sentence, then for specific names and calendar words. Names can appear anywhere in the sentence.
What your child will learn

Worked example
'maya went to lincoln school' should be 'Maya went to Lincoln School' because Maya and Lincoln School are names.
Common mistake
Capitalizing a common noun while leaving a specific name lowercase.
