  1. WC 1.4 Capitalization: Use correct capitalization • Use correct capitalization • Recognize correct capitalization within text.

  2. January 28, 2013Dear Kyle,How have you been? Even though you live in New York, I still hope you can make it to California next month. I think you’ll love it out here in the West. When you get here on Sunday, we can go to In-N-Out so you can experience the greatest fast food restaurant in the world. The next day is Memorial Day, so I thought we could go see the movie Lincoln. It’s about the Civil War and I hear Daniel Day Lewis does a great job. Is Grandpa Jack going to come out with you? I know he wants to walk across the Golden Gate Bridge. I remember him saying, “You better walk with me over that bridge if I ever come to see you!” I can’t wait for you to get here, hopefully Grandpa will be with you.Sincerely, William Squier III
