I wrote this song about proper nouns as a memorable tool to help my students learn and understand proper nouns for life. This song was written to highlight the numerous cases where proper nouns need to be capitalized. When teaching the concept in class, I like to illustrate the way using a proper noun makes the noun more specific. For example, I could say "The girl went to the restaurant." However, if I say, "Inari went to Taco Bell," the reader would have a much clearer picture in his/her head of what happened. Proper nouns make your writing more specific! [ Ссылка ]
