They walked to school, we took the bus Sentence number one, I went to the beach, subject there, I. I brought my hat, next subject, I again. Therefore, we need to start a new sentence. So we must put a full stop after beach. Let's look at sentence number two and number three, I went to the shops. Sandra went home. Sandra is the next subject, so we must put a full stop, after the word shops. Number three, they, is a subject, walked to school, we, the next subject took the bus.

Evie told Lizzie that she wanted to see a duck. Evie loved ducks. Evie saw the ducks, she was very happy. Remember, we must use a capital letter when we name a specific person or place This first sentence is correct now. Evie and Lizzie went to visit the farm. Lizzie requires a capital L. Went and farm do not require capital letters. How did you get on with correcting this paragraph? Well done. Now, time for some amazing writing.
