Capitalization is one of the topics covered in Grammar Graphics and Picture Perfect Punctuation. As an example, the rules of what to capitalize are taught with a baseball game. The word capitalize sounds like cap-i-tall-eyes, so Dr. Memory’s™ All-star baseball team, The Capital Eyes™, wear caps with tall eyes as they play the game. The players are developed with sound-alike words that picture the rules. All players are animated as they are taught and learned.
As an example, the first baseman represents the rule that teaches to capitalize the pronoun “I.” The first baseman is a nun who is a pro golfer, or a Pro Nun, to represent a pronoun. She hits an eyeball off of first base with her golf club instead of a golf ball. Consequently, she is the pronoun “I.” When students see the Pro Nun with the eye as the first baseman they will know to capitalize the pronoun “I.” Unique application drills help students understand the uses of the rules after they are learned.
The rules of grammar and punctuation are made tangible by Doctor Memory™, so learning them becomes fun and easy.
There are two other baseball related pictures that teach the rest of the rules of capitalization. For example the rules that you do not capitalize are animated and pictured with donut umpires to show that you donut, or do not, capitalize them. Laughter abounds in this CD-ROM.
