NOUNS!

This week Ms. Strum taught us all about NOUNS! We learned about two different types of nouns. The first type of noun that we learned about was a Common Noun. A common noun names a person, place, thing, or animal. The second type of noun that we learned about was a Proper Noun. A proper noun names a SPECIFIC person, place, thing, or animal. Ms. Strum also taught us that Proper Nouns begin with a capital letter. We made a T-chart with the common nouns on one side and on the other side Ms. Strum wrote the Proper Noun that went with the Common Noun. Ms. Strum then had us work in groups. She gave each group a sheet of construction paper. We folded the sheet of paper in half. On one side of the paper, we wrote the Common Nouns. As a group, we wrote Proper Nouns on the other side that matched each common noun. Look at the pictures below to see how hard we are working!
