When we begin writing our special leaflet we need to use capitals at the beginning of our sentences and at the beginning of countries as we may write about them in our leaflet.
Activity:
Activity 1 - Write title for the leafle, place a picture on the front too, start the first page about what to feed your reptile, then continue on the next pages over the next few days- focusing on capital letters in the right place and full stops at the end of sentences.
Activity 2- Practice writing capital and lower-case letters.
