Parts of Speech Review Nouns, Verbs, Adjectives and Verb Tenses Nouns • Nouns are a person, place and/or thing • They are grouped into 3 categories: – Common nouns – Proper Nouns – Pronouns Common Nouns • Common Nouns are person/animals, places, or things. All of these are physical things you can see or touch. – Example: Please leave your shoes by the front door. Shoes are things and so is door. You can touch both of these things so they are a common noun. Let’s go to the store later. Store is a place, so it is a common noun too. The girl never made it to the house. Girl is a person and house is a place, both of these are a common noun. Review: Common Noun • What is a noun? • What are the 3 categories of a noun? Identify the common noun: - The boys fell asleep before it was over. - They painted the new restaurant today. - I left my notebook at work. Proper Nouns • Proper Nouns give a name to a common noun. Example: Ms. Simmons went to work late. Instead of “The woman went to work late”, you give the woman a name and it becomes Ms. Simmons. Publix is being sued by a few of its customers. Publix is the name of a store so it is a proper noun. I love the new Air Jordan sneakers. In this sentence Air Jordan’s are the name of the sneaker. Review Proper Nouns • Review: Proper Noun • Is a proper noun something you do? • A proper noun ______ a common noun. Identify: Mr. Lee bought a new dog. My favorite fast-food is Wendy’s. Do you like Macy’s shoes? Pronouns • Pronouns are the opposite of proper nouns. They give no name to a person. • Pronouns are: we, they,it, us, I, them, they , you, him, her, he and she. Example: He ruined his sisters’ dress. “He” is someone, just not the name of the person. She and I went to the same school. “She, I” are talking about people, just not the name of the people. They had a sleepover this weekend. “They” is referring to a group of people, but we do not know the names of the people. Review: Pronouns • Review: Pronouns • A pronoun is the same as a proper noun. True or False • Name some pronouns: Identify the pronouns: He chose to go to school instead of home. They won tickets to the movie premiere. I don’t like to eat raw food. Adjectives • Adjectives describe a noun. • Adjectives make a sentence or story interesting by adding descriptions. She bought a matching blue belt with her hat. The noun is belt so that means the adjective blue is describing the belt. The cheese was old, green and moldy in the refrigerator. Cheese is the noun so that means “old, green and moldy”, is the adjective. We watched the beautiful sunrise this morning. Sunrise is the noun so beautiful is the adjective because it is describing the noun. Review: Adjectives • Adjectives describe a ______. Identify: Officer O'Brien followed her to a small, spotless apartment with shiny brass fixtures. Mother Fletcher, dark eyes bright, told him to call her an ambulance on his radio. When he asked her age, she answered, "Full-grown." The ambulance came, he wrote up the incident, and forgot about it. Action Verbs • Action verbs is something a noun does. Example: The boy ran home.

Even though he subscribed to the precinct motto not to take work home, he told his wife, Kathy, about her. One night he mentioned that she had invited the O'Briens to Christmas dinner. He had said that yes, they would come. But he said that no one would really expect them to. He and Kathy argued. Their daughter, Meaghan, six, wanted to go too.” Verb Tenses • Verb tenses tell whether a verb happened in the past, present or future. Ex. call, will call, called Marshall played the trumpet in school. Play is the verb. Play(ed) is the tense that shows it happened in the past. We will sing tomorrow at the fundraiser. Sing is the verb. “Will sing” is the tense that shows it has not happened yet. I like to play Chinese checkers. Play is the verb and the tense “to play” is present tense and is currently happening.
