a. Print upper and lower case letters using proper approach strokes, letter formation, and line placement.

b. With prompting and support, print first and last names using proper letter formation, capitalizing only the first letter of each name.

Note: In Kindergarten, students are learning the most basic forms of capitalization. While the standard only requires that the first letter of each name be capitalized, some students' names may include additional capital letters, hyphens, or apostrophes. In such cases, students should learn to write their own names using proper capitalization and punctuation.

Examples: De'Andre McGill, Kim Mi-Sun, Juan de Jesus

c. With prompting and support, use lower case letters in majority of written work, using capitals only when appropriate.

Title: Solutions to Lessen Human Impact on the Environment
Unit Plan Overview: The unit will investigate the human impact on the environment. During the investigation, the students will identify the possible solutions to lessen the human impact on the local environment, plan possible solutions to lessen the human impact on the local environment, and identify potential human impacts on the local environment. This will be implemented through an introduction lesson with a guest speaker, an informational writing piece, a classroom recycle project, and a summative group video where students present solutions to lessen human impact on the local environment. This unit was created as part of the ALEX Interdisciplinary Resource Development Summit.
