Set 1. Prints on its own sheet.
It practices capitalizing proper nouns and punctuating a list — 7 questions for Grade 2, all on Common Core L.2.2: Capitalize proper nouns, use apostrophes and commas, and spell patterns you have been taught. The instruction to students is “Rewrite each sentence correctly”, and the answer key follows on the next sheet.
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.L.2.2 — L.2.2, under Language for Grade 2. The published standard reads: “Demonstrate command of the conventions of standard English capitalization, punctuation, and spelling when writing.” The worksheet assesses that standard rather than a paraphrase of it.
Capitals and Commas is written for Grade 2, typically ages 7-8. It is one of the sheets on L.2.2, so it suits any student working at that standard — including older students revisiting it and younger ones working ahead.
Yes. All 7 answers are generated from the same problems as the questions, so the key cannot drift out of step with the sheet. It starts on a fresh sheet of paper, after the questions, so it is not handed out with the class by accident.
25 — one per student, and all 25 ask different questions. Set 1 downloads the whole class as a single PDF. Every version is fixed to its own address, so a sheet printed today holds the same problems when you reopen it next week.
Yes. Capitals and Commas, its answer key and its 25 versions are free to print and photocopy for your own class, with no account, no email capture and no subscription at the download step. Please do not resell them or republish them as your own.
