Special proofreading marks are used to show what kind of mistakes are found. In a word should have a capital letter, put three lines under the letter. If a letter should be lowercased, put a slash mark through the capital letter. Give students first hand practice with looking for and correcting sentences and paragraphs that misuse capital letters and lowercase letters. The 10 activities in the unit include an answer key.
