Step-by-step solution for: Grade 3 Parts of Speech Worksheets | Worsheets library
This worksheet asks you to fill in the blanks with words that fit the type of speech listed (like noun, verb, or adjective). Since this is a creative writing activity, there are many correct answers. Below is one possible way to complete the story using common words that make sense.
---
Step-by-step reasoning:
1. time (noun) – The sentence starts with “Once upon a ___”, which is a classic story opening. “Time” fits perfectly as a noun here.
2. (adjective) tree house – We need an adjective to describe the tree house. Words like “cool,” “big,” or “fun” work. Let’s pick “cool.”
3. (verb) through his yard – This needs a past tense verb showing movement. “Ran” or “walked” both fit. Let’s use “ran.”
4. (noun #2) – He picked up spare pieces of something. Likely materials for building — “wood” is perfect.
5. (verb #2) – He did something with small and big ones (pieces). Probably “collected” or “gathered.” Let’s go with “gathered.”
6. (noun #3) – He needed more things to build. Maybe “nails” or “tools.” Since he later finds nails separately, let’s say “planks” here.
7. (verb #3) – He found a hammer and used it to assemble. So he “used” the hammer. Simple and clear.
8. (noun #4) – Found in drawers — likely “box” or “bag” of nails. “Box” works well.
9. (noun #5) – Where did he start building? Back at the oak tree — so “oak tree” again, but since it says “the ___”, maybe “spot” or “area.” Let’s choose “spot.”
10. (adjective #2) – Describing the tree house after building. “Sturdy,” “nice,” or “tall.” Pick “sturdy.”
11. (adjective #3) – How did he feel about his work? “Proud” is a great word here.
12. (adjective #4) – How did the tree house look? “Beautiful,” “amazing,” or “finished.” Let’s say “beautiful.”
13. (verb #3) – His dad could help put it up. “Help” or “climb” — but “help” makes more sense contextually. Wait — actually, looking back, we already used “verb #3” earlier. Let me check… Oh! There’s a mistake — the last blank says “(verb #3)” again, but we already used that label. Looking at the original text:
> Maybe his dad could _______ (verb #3) with that.
Actually, re-reading carefully — the first “verb #3” was for “He ___ (verb #3) in the drawers...” — wait no, let’s map them properly from the image text:
From the image:
- verb #1 → “decided to build a ___ (adjective) tree house. He ___ (verb) through his yard…” → That’s verb #1 = ran
Wait — actually, labeling might be off in my head. Let me reassign based on order of appearance in the story:
Looking at the actual blanks in order:
1. time (given)
2. (adjective) → cool
3. (verb) → ran ← this is verb #1
4. (noun #2) → wood
5. (verb #2) → gathered
6. (noun #3) → planks
7. (verb #3) → used ← yes, this is verb #3
8. (noun #4) → box
9. (noun #5) → spot
10. (adjective #2) → sturdy
11. (adjective #3) → proud
12. (adjective #4) → beautiful
13. (verb #3) again? Wait — last line: “Maybe his dad could ___ (verb #3) with that.”
That can’t be right — probably a typo in the worksheet. It should be verb #4 or just “verb”. But since it says “verb #3”, and we already used “used” for verb #3, perhaps they mean another verb. To avoid confusion, I’ll treat it as a new verb slot — maybe “help” or “fix”. Let’s pick “help”.
But to stay true to the labels given, if “verb #3” is reused, then we must reuse the same word? No — that doesn’t make sense. More likely, it’s a labeling error. For safety, I’ll assign “help” as the final verb, even if labeled incorrectly.
Alternatively, maybe the last one is meant to be “verb #4” — but since the worksheet says “verb #3”, I’ll assume it’s a repeat label and pick a different verb anyway — like “climb” — because putting up a treehouse might involve climbing.
Actually, rereading: “Now, all he had to do was put it up in the tree. Maybe his dad could ___ (verb #3) with that.”
“Put it up” implies assembling or securing — so “help” is best. Or “secure”. But simplest is “help”.
I think the safest is to use “help” for the last blank, ignoring the duplicate label issue.
Final list:
- time
- cool
- ran
- wood
- gathered
- planks
- used
- box
- spot
- sturdy
- proud
- beautiful
- help
