Let’s go through each sentence and find the nouns — these are words that name a person, place, thing, or idea.
1. “The students arrived safely.”
→ “students” is a noun (people).
2. “Rebecca loved to play on the trampoline.”
→ “Rebecca” (person), “trampoline” (thing) → both are nouns.
3. “The building was very tall.”
→ “building” is a noun (place/thing).
4. “Mrs Harrison’s computer was broken.”
→ “Mrs Harrison” (person), “computer” (thing) → both are nouns.
5. “The children got stickers for behaving well.”
→ “children” (people), “stickers” (things) → both are nouns.
6. “All of the pencils needed to be sharpened.”
→ “pencils” is a noun (things).
7. “Zach had a grey schoolbag.”
→ “Zach” (person), “schoolbag” (thing) → both are nouns.
8. “The school bell is so loud.”
→ “school” (place), “bell” (thing) → both are nouns. (“school” here describes the bell, but it’s still a noun used as an adjective — we’ll include it since it names a type of thing/place.)
Wait — actually, in “school bell”, “school” is acting like an adjective describing what kind of bell it is. But technically, “school” is still a noun. In elementary grammar tasks like this, they usually want you to underline all words that are nouns even if they’re modifying another noun. So yes — underline “school” and “bell”.
9. “Terry hurt her leg.”
→ “Terry” (person), “leg” (body part = thing) → both are nouns.
10. “The cookies were delicious.”
→ “cookies” is a noun (things).
Now let’s list them clearly:
1. students
2. Rebecca, trampoline
3. building
4. Mrs Harrison, computer
5. children, stickers
6. pencils
7. Zach, schoolbag
8. school, bell
9. Terry, leg
10. cookies
Final Answer:
1. students
2. Rebecca, trampoline
3. building
4. Mrs Harrison, computer
5. children, stickers
6. pencils
7. Zach, schoolbag
8. school, bell
9. Terry, leg
10. cookies
