What children learn in Level 43
- Titles get special treatment. Long works, like novels, movies, and magazines, go in italics. When you write by hand, underline them.
- Short works, like poems, songs, and short stories, go in quotation marks.
- Capitalize the first word, the last word, and the important words. Small words like the, of, and in stay lowercase in the middle.
