Grade 1 Grammar: Nouns printable worksheets - Lets Share Knowledge - Free Printable

Let’s go through each sentence one by one and pick the best noun from the word bank that fits logically.

Word Bank:
blanket, basket, tree, pen, gate, ball, car, train, girl, dress, hat, cat, sun, bag, door

---

1. The ________ was chasing the mouse.
→ Cats chase mice. So: cat

2. Please close the bedroom ________.
→ You close a door. So: door

3. A small boy and ________ were crying.
→ “Girl” pairs with “boy”. So: girl

4. The leaves are falling from the ________.
→ Leaves fall from trees. So: tree

5. Where is the bat and ________?
→ Bat and ball go together (like in baseball). So: ball

6. The ________ was as white as snow.
→ Blankets can be white like snow. Also possible: dress, hat — but “blanket” is most common for this phrase. Let’s check others… Actually, “dress” or “hat” could work too, but “blanket” is often used in similes like this. Wait — let’s think again. “As white as snow” — maybe “dress”? But actually, looking at context, “blanket” is fine. However, later we have “wedding dress”, so maybe save “dress” for #13. Let’s hold on. Actually, “hat” could also be white. Hmm. Let’s look ahead. #13 says “Jane’s wedding ___ is white” → that’s definitely “dress”. So for #6, “blanket” is safe. Or “hat”? But “blanket” is more commonly described as “white as snow”. I’ll go with blanket.

Wait — let me double-check. Maybe “hat”? No, blanket is better. Final choice: blanket

7. The ________ is shining in the sky.
→ Only thing that shines in the sky from the list: sun

8. The fruit ________ was on the table.
→ Fruit goes in a basket. So: basket

9. I have one red pen and one blue ________.
→ Pen matches with another writing tool? But “pen” is already used. Wait — maybe “pen” again? No, it says “one red pen and one blue ___” — probably another pen? But “pen” is only once in the bank. Wait — maybe “bag”? No. “Hat”? No. Actually, maybe it’s “pen” again? But we can’t reuse unless allowed. The instructions don’t say you can’t reuse, but typically in these worksheets, you use each word once. Let’s count how many blanks: 15 blanks. Word bank has 15 words. So each word used exactly once.

So we must assign each word once.

We’ve used: cat, door, girl, tree, ball, blanket, sun, basket → that’s 8.

Remaining: pen, gate, car, train, dress, hat, bag, door? Wait no — door already used. List again:

Original bank:
Row 1: blanket, basket, tree, pen, gate, ball, car, train
Row 2: girl, dress, hat, cat, sun, bag, door → wait, that’s 15? Let’s count:

1. blanket
2. basket
3. tree
4. pen
5. gate
6. ball
7. car
8. train
9. girl
10. dress
11. hat
12. cat
13. sun
14. bag
15. door

Yes, 15 words. We’ve assigned 8 so far. Remaining: pen, gate, car, train, dress, hat, bag

Back to #9: “I have one red pen and one blue ________.”
Since “pen” is already in the sentence, and we need to fill the blank with a different word, what makes sense? Maybe “bag”? Like a blue bag? But it says “one red pen and one blue ___” — perhaps it’s implying another stationery item? But “pen” is the only one. Unless... maybe it’s “pen” again? But we can’t reuse. Perhaps it’s a trick? Wait — maybe “hat”? No. “Car”? No. Actually, maybe it’s “pen” — but we have to use each word once. So if “pen” is in the sentence, we shouldn’t use it again? The instruction is “pick the correct noun for each sentence” — it doesn’t say you can’t reuse, but since there are 15 blanks and 15 words, likely one-to-one.

So for #9, if “pen” is mentioned, maybe the blank is not “pen”. What else? “Bag” — like a pencil bag? Possible. “Hat”? Unlikely. “Gate”? No. “Train”? No. “Dress”? No. “Car”? No. So “bag” is plausible. Let’s tentatively put bag here.

But let’s keep going and come back.

10. My school ________ is very heavy.
→ School bag! Yes, students carry heavy bags. So: bag — but wait, we just considered bag for #9. Conflict.

If #10 is “school bag”, then #9 can’t be bag.

So reconsider #9: “I have one red pen and one blue ________.”
What if it’s “pen”? But we have only one “pen” in the bank. Unless the worksheet allows reusing? But 15 blanks, 15 words — probably not.

Alternative: maybe “hat”? Like a blue hat? But why pair with pen? Doesn’t make sense.

Another idea: perhaps “car”? No.

Wait — maybe it’s “pen” and we’re supposed to use it? But then we’d have to skip using it elsewhere. But there’s no other sentence that needs “pen” except possibly this one.

Actually, looking at #9: it says “one red pen and one blue ___” — it might be expecting “pen” again, meaning two pens. But since “pen” is only listed once, perhaps it’s a mistake? Or maybe we should use “pen” here.

But let’s see other sentences.

#11: Where have you parked your ________? → Car or train? Usually “parked your car”. Train isn’t parked, it’s stationed. Gate? No. So likely car

#12: The watchman was standing at the ________. → Watchmen stand at gates. So gate

#13: Jane’s wedding ________ is white. → Wedding dress. So dress

#14: My parents were waiting at the ________ station. → Train station. So train

#15: A ________ is a head covering. → Hat. So hat

Now let’s list all assignments:

1. cat
2. door
3. girl
4. tree
5. ball
6. ? (we had blanket)
7. sun
8. basket
9. ?
10. ?
11. car
12. gate
13. dress
14. train
15. hat

Used so far: cat, door, girl, tree, ball, sun, basket, car, gate, dress, train, hat → that’s 12.

Remaining words: blanket, pen, bag

Blanks left: #6, #9, #10

#6: The ________ was as white as snow. → Can be blanket, or dress, but dress is used. Hat is used. So blanket is good.

#9: I have one red pen and one blue ________. → If we use “pen” here, but “pen” is still available? Words left: blanket, pen, bag

If we put “pen” in #9, then #6 and #10 need blanket and bag.

#10: My school ________ is very heavy. → School bag. So bag

Then #6: The ________ was as white as snow. → blanket

And #9: I have one red pen and one blue pen? But we only have one “pen” in the bank. Problem.

Unless... perhaps the sentence is “one red pen and one blue [something else]”, and “pen” is not to be reused.

But what else? “Bag” is taken by #10. “Blanket” by #6.

Conflict.

Alternative: maybe #9 is “bag”, and #10 is something else? But “school bag” is standard.

Perhaps #10 is “book”? But “book” not in bank.

Another thought: maybe “My school gate is very heavy”? But gates aren’t typically described as heavy in that context, and watchman is already at the gate in #12.

Or “My school car”? Doesn’t make sense.

Perhaps “My school train”? No.

So “school bag” is best for #10.

Then for #9, if we can’t use “pen” twice, what to do?

Wait — perhaps the word “pen” is meant to be used in #9, and we accept that “pen” is used once, even though it appears in the sentence. The sentence says “one red pen” — that’s part of the sentence, not the blank. The blank is for the second item. So we need to choose a noun for the blank. It could be “pen” again, but since “pen” is only once in the bank, we can’t.

Unless the worksheet allows it, but given 15 blanks and 15 unique words, likely not.

Perhaps I made a mistake earlier.

Let’s list all sentences and assign carefully, ensuring each word used once.

Start over with assignment:

1. The ________ was chasing the mouse. → cat (only logical)

2. Please close the bedroom ________. → door (standard)

3. A small boy and ________ were crying. → girl (pair with boy)

4. The leaves are falling from the ________. → tree (obvious)

5. Where is the bat and ________? → ball (bat and ball)

6. The ________ was as white as snow. → Options: blanket, dress, hat. But dress and hat will be used later. Save them. Use blanket for now.

7. The ________ is shining in the sky. → sun (only option)

8. The fruit ________ was on the table. → basket (fruit basket)

9. I have one red pen and one blue ________. → Need a noun. Possible: bag, hat, etc. But let's see what's left later.

10. My school ________ is very heavy. → bag (school bag)

11. Where have you parked your ________? → car (parked car)

12. The watchman was standing at the ________. → gate (watchman at gate)

13. Jane’s wedding ________ is white. → dress (wedding dress)

14. My parents were waiting at the ________ station. → train (train station)

15. A ________ is a head covering. → hat (head covering)

Now, used words: cat, door, girl, tree, ball, blanket, sun, basket, bag, car, gate, dress, train, hat

That's 14 words. Missing one: pen

And blank #9 is not filled yet.

So #9 must be pen

But the sentence is: "I have one red pen and one blue ________."

If we put "pen" in the blank, it becomes "one red pen and one blue pen" — which makes perfect sense! And "pen" is in the word bank, so we use it once.

The fact that "pen" appears in the sentence before the blank doesn't matter; we're filling the blank with the noun "pen".

So yes, #9: pen

And all words are used exactly once.

Confirm:

Words used:

1. cat
