How to solve "ValueError: Error when checking target: expected dense_20 to have shape (24,) but got array with shape (1,)"?

I'm working on a sign language interpretation using deep learning & for that, i'm building a CNN and i am getting an error like,

ValueError: Error when checking target: expected dense_20 to have shape (24,) but got array with shape (1,)

structure of my neural net:

code:

    model = Sequential()

    model.add(Conv2D(64, kernel_size=4, strides=1, activation='relu', input_shape = (64,64,1),padding = 'same'))
    model.add(Conv2D(64, kernel_size=4, strides=2, activation='relu',padding = 'same'))
    model.add(Dropout(0.2))

    model.add(Conv2D(128, kernel_size=4, strides=1, activation='relu',padding = 'same'))
    model.add(Conv2D(128, kernel_size=4, strides=2, activation='relu',padding = 'same'))
    model.add(Dropout(0.2))

    model.add(Conv2D(256, kernel_size=4, strides=1, activation='relu',padding = 'same'))
    model.add(Conv2D(256, kernel_size=4, strides=2, activation='relu',padding = 'same'))

    model.add(Flatten())
    model.add(Dropout(0.3))
    model.add(Dense(512, activation='relu'))
    model.add(Dense(24, activation='softmax'))

    model.compile(optimizer='adam', loss='categorical_crossentropy', metrics=['accuracy'])

    print(model.summary())

    model.fit(x_train, y_train, validation_data=(x_test, y_test),batch_size=64,epochs=8)

dimensions of arrays used:
x_train: (3977, 64, 64, 1)
y_train: (3977, 1)
x_test: (995, 64, 64, 1)
y_test: (995, 1)

Your last layer output shape need to match your label's vector shape
So you need to one_hot encode your y_train in order to fit your network.

You can do this like that :

from keras.utils import to_categorical
y_train = to_categorical(y_train, 24)

This will encode each of your label to a vector of size 24 (or whatever you need), filled with 0s and a 1 at the position of the corresponding label.
