Worksheets On Common And Proper Nouns For Grade 3 | Nouns ... - Free Printable

To solve this worksheet, we need to find the words that are proper nouns. Proper nouns are specific names for people, places, days, months, holidays, or brands. These words always start with a capital letter. Common nouns (like "party," "zoo," or "sisters") do not need to be capitalized unless they start a sentence.

Here is the step-by-step check for each sentence:

1. tom is a person's name. friday is a day of the week.
2. st. louis zoo is the specific name of a place. roger is the specific name of an elephant.
3. africa is the name of a continent. june is the name of a month.
4. Evann and Ashton are already capitalized correctly because they are names. No changes needed here.
5. pizza hut is the specific name of a restaurant brand. saturday is a day of the week.
6. yellowstone national park is the specific name of a park.
7. thanksgiving and christmas are specific holidays.
8. lisa is a person's name. tabby is the specific name given to the pet cat.
9. The first word did needs to be capitalized because it starts the sentence. easter is a specific holiday.
10. donna, tom, and sam are people's names. new york is the specific name of a place.
