Capital Letters and Full Stops
Enjoyable Quiz for Children Aged 5 to 7
This quiz reminds KS1 children that every sentence must contain a few key ingredients: capital letters, full stops and finger spaces. This is the foundation and basic requirements suggested in the National Curriculum. This activity is primarily aimed at Year 1 but can be used to solidify what a Year 2 pupil already knows. Using capital letters, full stops and finger spaces improves a child’s literacy and all-round English skills.
All sentences should begin with a capital letter. To know when a sentence has finished, we write a full stop. When reading your book, you pause when you see a full stop and take a breath. When you write, you need to remember that the reader needs to breathe, so don’t forget full stops!

1 .
Which sentence is perfect?
She sang all day long;
She sang all day long'
She sang all day long-
She sang all day long.
To complete this short sentence, you must end it with a full stop. A question and exclamation mark (?!) work because they have a dot at the bottom that works as a full stop.
2 .
Which sentence is perfect?
there are four flames for four candles
There are four flames for four candles.
There are four flames for four candles,
There are four flames for four candles..
Remember a sentence needs one full stop at the end and don't get confused between a full stop and a comma.
3 .
Which sentence is perfect?
The tooth fairy had a busy night
The tooth fairy had a busy night.
.the tooth fairy had a busy night.

It's important to remember that full stops happen at the end of a sentence and never at the beginning.

Which sentence is perfect?
Harry was shocked at the amount of homework he was given.
Harry was shocked at the amount of homework he was given
Harry was shocked. at the amount of homework he was given.

Make sure the full stop finishes the end of a complete sentence. When reading, you have to pause for a full stop, if you pause and it doesn't make sense then the full stop is in the wrong place.
