Christmas Writing | Sentence Writing | Capitalization and Punctuation
- PDF
What educators are saying
Description
This packet contains 7 pages. Each page has a simple story on it including five sentences. The stories are about candy canes, lights, the snowman, reindeer, Santa’s hat, Santa, and Christmas tree.
This activity is connected to the CCGPS ELACCKL2a. Capitalize the first word in a sentence and the pronoun I.
The sentences are not written correctly. The first letter in each sentence has not been capitalized, and the ending punctuation is missing. The pronoun “I” in the middle of sentences and the holiday “Christmas” have not been capitalized.
Have your students rewrite each sentence correctly. Begin each sentence with a capital letter, capitalize the name of the holiday and the pronoun I, and add the correct ending punctuation. The sentences used contain frequently used sight words, decodable words that students should be able to read, and a few other common nouns that students see often and should be able to figure out using the small picture clue and/or title.
These activities are great for morning work, literacy centers, and homework or for a quick mini lesson on including capital letters and ending punctuation.
Students can read the story to a partner or to the teacher after correcting the sentences. Students could also add other details to the story using the back of their paper.
