Capital Letters to Begin Sentences

Capital Letters to Begin Sentences

Year 1

A clear and simple PowerPoint designed to help Year 1 children understand when and why we use capital letters at the start of a sentence. With easy examples, partner talk prompts, and common mistakes to spot, this lesson makes a tricky skill easy to grasp. Includes a differentiated follow-up task, where children correct sentences, write their own, and explain why capital letters are important—all with gentle support to build confidence. Ideal for whole-class teaching or small group work when introducing sentence punctuation.
