Titles and Brands

Introduce the skill with a brief whole-class activity, such as calling out examples and asking students to give a thumbs up when they hear subjects, titles and brands in a sentence. Then let students work through the worksheet independently or in pairs, referring to a class anchor chart if one is available. When reviewing answers, ask students to explain why an answer is correct rather than just confirming it. These subjects, titles and brands worksheets work well as a focused practice activity, a homework assignment, or a warm-up at the start of a language arts lesson.

Fourth graders should correctly capitalize proper nouns including specific places (cities, countries, rivers), organizations, holidays, historical events and periods, languages, and names of courses (CCSS L.4.2a). They should also capitalize the first word of a quotation when appropriate. Fourth grade expands on the basic rules from earlier grades.

Common errors include failing to capitalize names of specific places (the amazon river vs. the Amazon River), incorrect capitalization of general directions vs. proper regions (turn north vs. I live in the North), and inconsistent capitalization of titles when used before names (president Lincoln vs. President Lincoln). Proofreading worksheets targeting these specific errors are effective practice.

Create a reference chart organized by category: people's names, specific places, specific organizations, specific time periods, languages/nationalities. The unifying rule is that proper nouns name a specific one-of-a-kind thing. Editing worksheets where students proofread a paragraph for capitalization errors - rather than fill-in-the-blank exercises - build the proofreading habit that matters in real writing.
