Students practice converting common nouns to proper nouns in this educational worksheet.

Let’s go through each sentence one by one. The goal is to replace the underlined common nouns with proper nouns — that means we need to use specific names for people, places, or things instead of general words.

---

1. He went to town in the morning.
→ “He” is a pronoun referring to a person — let’s pick a name like *James*.
→ “town” is a general place — let’s pick a real town name like *Springfield*.
✔ New sentence: James went to Springfield in the morning.

---

2. The lady at the grocery store was kind.
→ “lady” → pick a woman’s name, like *Mrs. Johnson*
→ “grocery store” → pick a real store name, like *Walmart* or *Kroger* (let’s use *Kroger*)
✔ New sentence: Mrs. Johnson at Kroger was kind.

---

3. The family saw a funny movie.
→ “The family” → give them a last name, like *the Smiths*
→ “movie” → pick a real movie title, like *Toy Story*
✔ New sentence: The Smiths saw Toy Story.

*(Note: We don’t always need to say “a funny movie” — just naming the movie implies it’s a thing they saw.)*

4. He waters his lawn in the afternoon.
→ “He” → pick a boy’s name, like *Tommy*
→ “lawn” isn’t really something you can make into a proper noun — but wait! Actually, “lawn” here is part of “his lawn,” which refers to his yard. But since “lawn” itself isn’t typically replaced with a proper noun, maybe we should focus on replacing “He”. However, looking back at the example, only underlined words are to be replaced. In this case, only “He” is underlined. So we just change “He” to a name.
✔ New sentence: Tommy waters his lawn in the afternoon.

*(Wait — actually, rechecking the original worksheet: in #4, only “He” is underlined. So yes, only replace “He”. Same for others — only underline = replace.)*

---

5. She is my best friend.
→ “She” → pick a girl’s name, like *Emma*
✔ New sentence: Emma is my best friend.

---

6. I enjoy going to school.
→ “school” → pick a real school name, like *Lincoln Elementary*
✔ New sentence: I enjoy going to Lincoln Elementary.

---

Now let’s double-check:

- All underlined common nouns have been replaced with proper nouns (specific names).
- Sentences still make sense.
- No extra changes were made beyond what was asked.

Final Answer:
1. James went to Springfield in the morning.
2. Mrs. Johnson at Kroger was kind.
3. The Smiths saw Toy Story.
4. Tommy waters his lawn in the afternoon.
5. Emma is my best friend.
6. I enjoy going to Lincoln Elementary.
