This quiz deals with Upper and Lower Case Letters. It will aid both handwriting and sentence level. Children need to know the alphabet by elementary school and also need to be able to form each letter correctly. This quiz helps children identify both upper and lower case letters and reminds them of their varying formation. Knowing the letters will also help their sentence level skills as they will be able to form the correct capital letter for the beginning of the sentence. In addition, recognizing upper and lower case letters will improve their English and literacy.
When we write, we use capital letters (ABC) and lower case letters (abc). Capital letters are bigger and sometimes look different to the lower case letters (Aa). We use capital letters for the beginning of sentences and your name. Your name will begin with one capital letter and all the other letters are lower case. Test your knowledge on letters.

‘M’ and ’N’ look very similar. Expressway begins with ‘M’; the longest expressway is the M6 which is 225 miles long. If you accidentally draw an ’N’ remember that expressways are long and so, the ‘M’ is longer too.

The lower case ’t’ looks just like the capital letter except when it’s a capital, it stands on its tiptoes making it taller and lifting its arms above its head.

Many children get b and d confused. The best way to remember which way the b or d goes is to remember the word ‘bed’ and using both hands make a circle with your thumb and forefinger. Remember that the word bed begins with a ‘b’ and when you look at your left hand, that will show you a ‘b’ and when you look at your right hand it will look like a ‘d’.

Queen Elizabeth is our queen and she is queen of the people. A lower case q and p look similar and a good way to remember their direction is that p looks the same as a lower or capital letter and a capital Q’s leg drops down to the side to make a q.

Think back to what we learned about bed.
