girl. But if I say Kayley went to the store then we

Let’s Practice!
The girl is very smart.
girl is a Common Noun. If we
wanted to know which girl was
smart we would put a girls
NAME in place of girl.
_____ is very smart.
Nicole is very smart.
Who is very smart?
Nicole is a Proper Noun and
names the girl. We capitalize her
name.
The boy went to see the
doctor.
The boy went to see the
doctor.
boy is a Common Noun. If we put
Phillip’s name in for boy, we have named
the boy.
Phillip went to see the doctor.
Who went to see the doctor?
We now know that Phillip is the boy who went to
see the doctor. Phillip NAMES the boy. We
capitalize his name.
What about people’s titles?
Now what is a title?
Dr.
Mrs.
Miss.
Mr.
Ms.
Aunt
Uncle
Those are all titles. They help
us identify a person and are also
Proper Nouns.
Let’s Practice!
When I get a shot dr. harris always give
me a sucker.
When I get a shot dr. harris always give
me a sucker.
What’s wrong with this
sentence?
When I get a shot dr. harris always give
me a sucker.
Dr. Harris is a title and should
be capitalized because he
names a doctor.
When I get a shot Dr. Harris always give
me a sucker.
My aunt amy gives the best presents.
What’s wrong with this sentence?
My aunt amy gives the best presents.
Who is Amy?
She is your Aunt—Aunt is her title
and you capitalize all titles!
My Aunt Amy gives the best presents.
Who is Amy?
She is your Aunt—Aunt is her title
and you capitalize all titles!
