Narrator: In Lesson 3, the students will name and
describe the first step of the COPS strategy, and

00:00:06.759 --> 00:00:10.526
Mrs. Gardner will then model this step.

00:00:10.526 --> 00:00:13.815
Mrs. Gardner: Now you guys are going to take over
the first two steps. Now, we’re going to edit this

00:00:13.815 --> 00:00:20.071
paper about Macy. When we’re using our COPS strategy,
what’s the first step?

00:00:20.071 --> 00:00:25.915
Students: “C”, capitalization: Have I capitalized
the first word and proper names?

00:00:25.915 --> 00:00:31.319
Mrs. Gardner: Good. So I need to look at this and
see if I’ve done that. Okay, so I look at the first

00:00:31.319 --> 00:00:37.178
word, and it’s not capitalized. So I need to make
sure I capitalize that first word. And that first

00:00:37.178 --> 00:00:41.938
word is Macy’s name; so, that’s a proper name, so
that needs to be capitalized. “Macy likes to play

00:00:41.938 --> 00:00:48.978
basketball,” period. “She”—okay, that’s capitalized—”usually
plays at the forward position.
