Grade 2 Nouns Worksheet - Circle and use nouns in sentences.

Let’s work through this step by step.

We are given a list of words:
sleep, blanket, put, fast, toys
under, bicycle, watch, mirror, clock
curtains, picture, light, face, books

First, we need to circle the nouns — that’s 10 of them.
Nouns are naming words — people, places, things, or ideas.

Let’s go one by one:

- sleep → can be a noun (like “I need sleep”) — YES
- blanket → thing — YES
- put → verb — NO
- fast → adjective/adverb — NO
- toys → things — YES
- under → preposition — NO
- bicycle → thing — YES
- watch → can be noun (the thing on your wrist) — YES
- mirror → thing — YES
- clock → thing — YES
- curtains → things — YES
- picture → thing — YES
- light → can be noun (the thing that shines) — YES
- face → body part — YES
- books → things — YES

Wait — that’s more than 10! Let’s count again carefully.

Actually, let’s pick the 10 most clearly nouns from the list that fit the sentences later too.

Looking at the worksheet, they already circled “blanket” as an example.

Now, for the sentences, we must use only nouns from the list above.

Let’s solve each sentence:

1. The ______ goes on the bed. → “blanket” is already filled in — makes sense.

2. Put your ______ in the toy box. → What goes in a toy box? “toys” — perfect.

3. There is room on the shelves for the ______. → Shelves hold things like “books” — yes.

4. The ______ should not be in your room. → Could be “clock”? But clocks are okay in rooms. Maybe “bicycle”? That’s big and might not belong inside. Or “mirror”? Hmm. Wait — maybe “toys”? No, toys belong. Actually, looking at common sense — perhaps “bicycle” is too big for a bedroom? But let’s see other options. Alternatively, “clock” is fine. Wait — maybe “face”? No. Let’s think: what shouldn’t be in your room? Maybe “bicycle” — yes, it’s bulky. But let’s check answer key logic. Actually, in many such worksheets, “bicycle” is used here because it’s not typically stored in a bedroom. So “bicycle”.

But wait — let’s look at sentence 8: “That is a nice ______ on your desk.” → Likely “picture” or “clock”. If we use “clock” here, then sentence 4 can’t use it. So maybe sentence 4 is “bicycle”, sentence 8 is “clock”.

5. Clean the ______ on the wall. → Things on walls: “picture”, “mirror”, “clock”. “Clean the picture” — possible. “Clean the mirror” — very common. “Clean the clock” — less common. So probably “mirror”.

6. Move the ______ to see through the window. → What blocks windows? “curtains” — yes!

7. Wash your ______ before dinner. → Body part: “face” — yes!

8. That is a nice ______ on your desk. → Desk items: “clock”, “picture”, “books”. “Nice clock” or “nice picture” — both work. But if we used “mirror” in #5, and “curtains” in #6, “face” in #7, then “clock” or “picture” left. Let’s say “picture” — but wait, sentence 9: “Turn the ______ off at night.” → That’s likely “light” — you turn off lights at night. So “light” must be used there.

So for #8, if “light” is used in #9, then #8 could be “clock” or “picture”. Let’s assign “clock” to #8.

9. Turn the ______ off at night. → “light” — definitely.

10. What time does the ______ say? → Must be “clock” — but we just used “clock” in #8? Conflict.

Ah — so we need to reassign.

Let’s list all nouns we’ll use:

From the list, we have these clear nouns:
sleep, blanket, toys, bicycle, watch, mirror, clock, curtains, picture, light, face, books

We need to pick 10 for the 10 sentences.

Sentences:

1. blanket — done

2. toys — good

3. books — good

4. bicycle — reasonable (not usually in room)

5. mirror — clean the mirror on the wall — yes

6. curtains — move curtains to see through window — yes

7. face — wash your face — yes

8. picture — nice picture on desk — okay

9. light — turn off light at night — yes

10. clock — what time does the clock say? — yes

Perfect! All fit.

So final answers:

1. blanket (given)

2. toys

3. books

4. bicycle

5. mirror

6. curtains

7. face

8. picture

9. light

10. clock

All from the noun list.

Final Answer:
2. toys
3. books
4. bicycle
5. mirror
6. curtains
7. face
8. picture
9. light
10. clock
