This week I want to practice capitalization. Here are a few tips that should help you with this activity.
-You only capitalize a personal title when it is attached to the person's name. (Vice Principal Foley)
-You capitalize a name brand but not the generic product (Lays potato chips)
This activity is 3 bonus points. All you have to do is write the word I have underlined capitalized or lowercase. I have written all of them in lowercase, so as not to give away the answers.
