To find the nouns in each sentence, we need to look for words that name a person, place, thing, or idea. Let's go through each sentence one by one.

1. "The leaves blew quickly."
* "Leaves" are things (parts of a plant). So, leaves is a noun.
* "Blew" is an action (verb).
* "Quickly" describes how they blew (adverb).
* Noun: leaves

2. "The lights were beautiful."
* "Lights" are things. So, lights is a noun.
* "Were" is a linking verb.
* "Beautiful" describes the lights (adjective).
* Noun: lights

3. "She rides her bike each day."
* "She" is a pronoun (stands in for a person's name), but often in these exercises, proper nouns and common nouns are the main focus. However, "bike" is definitely a thing.
* "Rides" is an action.
* "Her" is a possessive pronoun/adjective.
* "Bike" is a thing. So, bike is a noun.
* "Each" and "day": "Day" is a thing (a unit of time). So, day is also a noun.
* Nouns: bike, day (Note: "She" is a pronoun, which functions like a noun, but typically worksheets like this focus on common/proper nouns unless specified. I will stick to the clear objects/things).

4. "Tom's car broke down."
* "Tom" is a person's name. So, Tom is a proper noun.
* "Car" is a thing. So, car is a noun.
* "Broke down" is an action.
* Nouns: Tom, car

5. "He drove his new car."
* "He" is a pronoun.
* "Drove" is an action.
* "His" and "new" describe the car.
* "Car" is a thing. So, car is a noun.
* Noun: car

6. "Three dogs jumped up and down."
* "Three" is a number (adjective here describing dogs).
* "Dogs" are animals (things). So, dogs is a noun.
* "Jumped" is an action.
* "Up", "and", "down" are prepositions/conjunctions/adverbs.
* Noun: dogs

7. "Sarah screamed very loudly."
* "Sarah" is a person's name. So, Sarah is a proper noun.
* "Screamed" is an action.
* "Very loudly" describes how she screamed.
* Noun: Sarah

Final Answer:
Here are the nouns for each sentence:

1. leaves
2. lights
3. bike, day
4. Tom, car
5. car
6. dogs
7. Sarah
