In this final paragraph, I can identify additional nouns:
16. memories (things/abstract concepts)
17. time (thing/abstract concept)
18. day (thing/period of time)
19. painting (thing)
20. Blume (person - again, likely the artist's name)
21. homes (places)
22. day (again, as in "It had been a wonderful day")
Now I have identified all the nouns throughout the entire passage. Let me compile a complete list of all the nouns I found.
The nouns in the passage are:
1. Helen
2. mother
3. auction
4. city
5. paintings
6. vases
7. sculptures
8. things
9. homes
10. building
11. Blume
12. money
13. couches
14. pictures
15. memories
16. time
17. day
Note: Some words like "paintings," "homes," and "day" appear multiple times in the text, but I'm listing each unique noun only once.
The solution to this problem is to circle all these nouns in the original passage. The worksheet asks students to identify and circle all the nouns, which are persons, places, things, or ideas as defined in the KEY section.
