Grade 6 English worksheet focusing on identifying common and proper nouns through various sentence exercises.

Let's solve this worksheet step by step.

---

Part 1: Underline each noun in the following sentences.

We need to identify and underline all nouns in each sentence.

#### 1. The kings of Punjab were famous warriors.
- Nouns: kings, Punjab, warriors

#### 2. Please turn on the lights.
- Noun: lights

#### 3. The oranges in the basket are for Mrs. Green.
- Nouns: oranges, basket, Mrs. Green

#### 4. Ms. Brown showed a film about Rohingya in the class.
- Nouns: Ms. Brown, film, Rohingya, class

#### 5. Students of grade 4 gave a special show that was a huge success.
- Nouns: students, grade 4, show, success

> Note: "Grade 4" is a proper noun (specific grade level), so it's treated as a noun here.

#### 6. There were plenty of animals in the zoo.
- Nouns: animals, zoo

#### 7. We went to the central station to catch a train to London.
- Nouns: central station, train, London

> Note: "Central Station" is a proper noun if it refers to a specific place, but since it’s not capitalized here, we treat it as a common noun phrase.

#### 8. Giraffe are commonly found in Africa.
- Nouns: giraffe, Africa

> Note: "Giraffe" should be pluralized as "giraffes", but it's used incorrectly here. Still, it's a noun.

📌 Key Concepts:

- Common Nouns: General names for people, places, things, or ideas (e.g., cat, train, city).
- Proper Nouns: Specific names of people, places, organizations, etc., always capitalized (e.g., John, Paris, Diwali, Taj Mahal).

This exercise helps students distinguish between general and specific names in English grammar.
