  10. CAPS • First and second grade teachers notice improvements in independent writing particularly when the child is encouraged by their parents to write sentences on their own. Once a sentence is written, parents are encouraged to ask their child if he/she has done a CAPS check. Don’t worry if some of the words are phonetically spelled. Phonetic spelling of words not found on the word wall should be encouraged. Just reminding the child to “do a CAPS check” should be the only help a parent needs to provide once the child begins writing.

  11. C A P S (cont.) • Capital letters at the beginning of the sentence - The rest of the sentence should be written in the lower case. • All keywords should be spelled correctly – Encourage your child to use the word wall provided by Mrs. Schluter. Remember to update the word wall each time the key words are sent home by your child’s teacher. • Punctuation- All sentences need them. - In first grade, a period or question mark will suffice. • Spaces between words – In first grade, a “two finger space” is the prompt usually used by the teacher. In second grade, S means “sentence must make sense.”
