Escribirás una función que extraiga todas las palabras que comienzan con la letra mayúscula **'A'** de una cadena dada. Este ejercicio te ayudará a practicar el uso de patrones básicos de expresiones regulares y el módulo `re` de Python. Solo deben coincidir las palabras que empiezan con una 'A' mayúscula—**la búsqueda debe ser sensible a mayúsculas y minúsculas**.

**Puntos clave:**

- Uso del módulo `re` de Python;
- Coincidencia solo de palabras que comienzan con 'A' mayúscula;
- Conservación de la forma original de cada palabra encontrada en el texto.
