First Grade Grammar Worksheets and Activities | ClassWeekly - Free Printable

Let’s go through each sentence one by one. We need to find the verb (action word) in each sentence and decide if it is a noun or a verb.

Remember:
- A noun is a person, place, thing, or idea.
- A verb is an action — something you do.

We’ll look at the underlined word in each sentence and ask: “Is this word showing an action? Then it’s a verb. Is it naming something? Then it’s a noun.”

1. The cat jumped over the fence.
→ “Jumped” is an action → Verb

2. My friend loves to read.
→ “Friend” is a person → Noun

3. My mom tied my shoe.
→ “Tied” is an action → Verb

4. I love apples.
→ “Apples” are things → Noun

5. Eve found a shiny coin.
→ “Found” is an action → Verb

6. Dad explained the light bulb.
→ “Explained” is an action → Verb

7. We finished our homework.
→ “Homework” is a thing → Noun

8. Eric told me a bedtime story.
→ “Story” is a thing → Noun

9. Jennifer learned to play the piano.
→ “Learned” is an action → Verb

10. The room is empty.
→ Wait — there’s no underlined word here? But looking back at the image description, maybe “empty” was meant to be underlined? Let’s check context.

Actually, re-reading the original problem: It says “Read each sentence and write whether the underlined word is a noun or a verb.” In sentence 10, if “empty” is underlined, then:

“Empty” describes the room — it’s an adjective, not a noun or verb. But that doesn’t fit the task.

Wait — perhaps in the original worksheet, the underlined word in #10 is actually “is”? Because “is” is a verb (a linking verb). Or maybe “room”? Let’s think logically.

Looking at common patterns in such worksheets, and since all other sentences have clear nouns/verbs underlined, let’s assume for #10, the underlined word is “room” — which is a thing → Noun

But wait — another possibility: Maybe “empty” is being treated as a verb? Like “to empty the room”? But in this sentence, “The room is empty,” “empty” is an adjective.

This is confusing. Let me double-check standard curriculum expectations.

In most elementary grammar exercises like this, they avoid adjectives. So likely, the underlined word in #10 is “room” — which is a noun.

Alternatively, if “is” is underlined, it’s a verb.

Given the pattern of previous answers, and since “room” fits as a noun just like “friend,” “apples,” etc., I’ll go with noun for #10 assuming “room” is underlined.

BUT — hold on! Let’s look again at the user’s uploaded image description. The text says:

> 10. The room is empty. ___________

And earlier instructions say: “write whether the underlined word is a noun or a verb”

Since we can’t see the underline, but based on typical design, and because “empty” is not a noun or verb here, while “room” is a noun, and “is” is a verb — which one is more likely?

Actually, in many such worksheets, they might underline “is” to teach that even small words can be verbs.

Let me verify with logic:

If we must choose between noun or verb, and “empty” is neither, then probably the intended underlined word is “is” → which is a verb.

Yes — “is” is a form of “be”, which is a verb.

So for #10: “is” → Verb

That makes sense with the rest.

Final decision for #10: Verb (assuming “is” is underlined)
