Writing Lesson Plan: Stop and Go: Capitals and Periods

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Examine writing using a fun, interactive format. Young writers choose a piece of their own writing to proofread for initial capitals and final periods they left out. They work independently using green stickers to add capitals and red stickers to add periods to their drafts. You'll need 1/2-inch sticky round labels in green and red.
