Identify Uppercase and Lowercase 'I'

On Iqleel, first-grade students will learn an important capitalization rule about the word 'I'. They will practice identifying that when the letter 'I' is used as a word to talk about oneself, it must always be a big, uppercase letter. This skill helps them differentiate between the word ' I' and the lowercase letter 'i' used inside other words, like in 'big'. Mastering this special rule is a key part of learning Writing Conventions and helps students write clear and correct sentences.
