Nouns

The vast majority of words in the English language are names for people, places or things. These words are called nouns.

People    –    e.g. author, Thomas, Nicole Kidman.
Places    –    e.g. stage, Hollywood, China.
Things    –    e.g. face, mirror, talent.

Exercise:

Choose nouns from above each sentence to fill the gaps so that they make sense.

There are more words above than you will need.

Exercise:

Highlight the three nouns in each list.

Starting and finishing sentences

A sentence is a group of words starting with a capital letter. Most sentences end in a full stop.
These are either:    Statements     – sentences that state a fact
or:                           Commands     – sentences that give orders or requests.

Some sentences, however, end with a question mark (?) or an exclamation mark (!).
These are either:    Questions     – sentences that ask something
or:                           Exclamations     – sentences that express strong emotions.

Exercise:

Drag a full stop, a question mark or an exclamation mark from above to correctly complete each sentence.

Use all nine punctuation marks.
