As well as using them at the start of a sentence, Year 1 have been learning that capital letters are needed for the names of people, places, days of the week and the personal pronoun, ‘I’. First, they corrected some sentences to make sure that they included capital letters correctly and then they went on to create some of their own sentences using capital letters. Well done Year 1. ![](https://st-barnabas-primary-school.schudio.com/images/news/1C73E47A-4670-451C-A506-06131B31C830.jpeg) [Year 1](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-1) [English](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/english) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/837DD77C-E00B-42FD-9BDA-ED472E372C35.jpeg)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-05-16-year-1-adjectives-and-nouns) Previous ### [Year 1-Adjectives and nouns](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-05-16-year-1-adjectives-and-nouns) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/activitymore-FD7E2D17-F4A1-43B4-A9BE-D5E14607665F.png)](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-05-16-year-5-science-eggsperiment-dissecting-an-egg) Next ### [Year 5- Science Eggsperiment- Dissecting An Egg](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-05-16-year-5-science-eggsperiment-dissecting-an-egg) ### Personal Development - [News](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news) - [Events](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/events) - [Photo Gallery](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/photo-gallery-category/our-gallery) - [Calendar](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/calendar) - [School Council](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/school-council) - [Attendance](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/attendance) - [Fundraising](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/fundraising) - [Extra Curricular Clubs](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/clubs) - [Little Leaders](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/little-leaders) - [Visits and Visitors](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/visits-and-visitors) - [British Values](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/british-values) - [Protected Characteristics](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/protected-characteristics) ##### Location Knowlesly Road Darwen Lancashire BB3 2JA ##### Contact Us 01254 702996 ##### Stay Connected - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/stbarnabasce/) - [X](https://twitter.com/stbarnabasce) © Copyright 2021–2026 St Barnabas Primary School, A Church of England Academy School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://www.stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
