Description
What It Is:
This is a grammar worksheet focused on common and proper nouns. It includes a brief definition of each type of noun, followed by two exercises. The first exercise requires the student to underline the proper noun in each sentence and presumably capitalize it. The second exercise asks the student to write a proper noun for each given common noun, with 'dog breed' being exemplified by 'Boston Terrier.'

This worksheet is suitable for grades 2-4. The concepts of common and proper nouns are typically introduced in these grades. The sentence structure and vocabulary are appropriate for this age range.
Why Use It:

How to Use It:
First, review the definitions of common and proper nouns with the student. Then, have the student read each sentence and underline the proper noun that needs capitalization. Next, the student should rewrite the sentences with the proper nouns capitalized. Finally, for the second exercise, the student should write a fitting proper noun for each common noun provided.
