Section Two: Capitalization offers the SPOTLIGHT acronym, a memorable tool for teaching students the rules and nuances of capitalization, from proper nouns and historical documents to geographic locations and academic titles. Teachers will learn how to make capitalization fun and engaging through hands-on activities, games, and even an interactive "Capitalization Escape Room."

Using the READ and ROCK acronyms, teachers will help students build writing that flows naturally and engages the reader.
