Okay, now I see the final sentence: "Dad drives us carefully in the car." According to the definition that a noun is a person, place, or thing, I can identify two nouns here. The word "Dad" refers to a person. The word "car" refers to a vehicle, which is a thing. Therefore, both "Dad" and "car" are nouns that need to be circled.
I have now analyzed all seven sentences on the worksheet. I will summarize the solution for each sentence.
The task is to circle the noun(s) in each sentence based on the definition provided: "Nouns are a person, a place or a thing."
Here is the solution for each sentence:
1.
The cat is purring.
*
Noun: `cat` (a thing - an animal)
2.
The boy kicked the ball.
*
Nouns: `boy` (a person), `ball` (a thing)
3.
Sam plays with his friend Ben.
*
Nouns: `Sam` (a person), `friend` (a person), `Ben` (a person)
4.
The bus stops at the red light.
*
Nouns: `bus` (a thing - a vehicle), `light` (a thing - a traffic signal)
5.
We saw tigers at the zoo.
*
Nouns: `tigers` (a thing - animals), `zoo` (a place)
6.
These flowers are beautiful.
*
Noun: `flowers` (a thing - plants)
7.
Dad drives us carefully in the car.
*
Nouns: `Dad` (a person), `car` (a thing - a vehicle)
