Grade 1 Capitalization Worksheet

About this worksheet

Capital letters help readers see where a sentence begins and notice important names. In first grade, children practice capitals at the start of sentences and for names of people, days, and places. A child may know the rule when asked directly but forget it while reading or writing a whole sentence. This worksheet puts each capital in context. Children will find letters that need capitals, choose the correctly written sentence, and repair a short sentence that starts in lowercase. The examples are deliberately simple so handwriting or long vocabulary does not hide the grammar skill. As you check work together, ask your child to point to the first word before reading aloud. Then look for special names. This two-step routine—beginning first, names next—makes capitalization a repeatable editing habit rather than a scattered set of corrections.
