About this resource
Description
Capital letters show a reader that a word names one special person, place, day or thing. This Capital Letters Writing Worksheet gives 3rd grade students practice with the kinds of names that always need a capital: states, titles, months, holidays, product names, businesses and streets. Children see each name printed in all small letters, fix it, and then think about why it needs capitals. This capital letters writing worksheet builds the habit of checking every name in their own writing.
In the first part, students read seven names such as texas, the lost kite and happy paws pet shop. They write each one the right way on a line, then use the word box to label what kind of name it is. One tricky item, sunny puffs cereal, shows that only the brand name gets capitals. In the second part, students write three sentences about a trip they would like to take, using at least three kinds of names from the box. The answer key shows every corrected name and kind, plus a sample for the writing part.
What’s Included
- One printable page with seven names to rewrite and label
- A word box with seven kinds of names that need capital letters
- A short writing task to use capital letters in real sentences
- A full answer key with a sample answer
This resource helps kids in three ways. First, sorting names by kind teaches the rule behind capital letters, not just a list to memorize. Second, rewriting each name by hand gives careful practice with titles and business names that have more than one word. Third, the writing task moves the skill into the student’s own sentences, which is where capital letter mistakes usually happen.
Teachers and parents can extend the lesson with a capital letter hunt in a newspaper or a picture book, or by having students make a list of real places in their own town. Use this 3rd grade capitalization worksheet for morning work, a grammar center or homework, then have partners trade their trip sentences and check each other’s capitals.
