Instructional Ideas

• Great for a warm-up activity, homework assignment, or assessment

• After completing the worksheet, make the sentences more relevant by asking individuals to choose a sentence and draw what's happening in it, paying close attention to the nouns

Pros

• Includes an answer key
• Provides a scaffold to help ease youngsters into identifying nouns

Cons
