Parts of Speech online exercise for Grade 3 - Free Printable

Explanation:
We need to identify the part of speech for each underlined word in sentences 1–7. Then, we’ll drag (i.e., match) those words into the correct category boxes: adjectives, verbs, nouns, pronouns, or adverbs.

Let’s go one sentence at a time:

1. *If we finish our homework quickly, we can play.*
→ “quickly” describes *how* we finish — it modifies the verb *finish*.
✔ This is an adverb.

2. *Always be polite to your friends and teachers.*
→ “polite” describes the subject (*you*, implied), telling what kind of person you should be. It follows the linking verb *be*.
✔ This is an adjective.

3. *She speaks English well.*
→ “well” tells *how* she speaks — modifies the verb *speaks*.
✔ This is an adverb.

4. *Jenny likes to play Roblox. She is very good at it!*
→ “She” replaces the noun *Jenny* — a person.
✔ This is a pronoun.

5. *Michael never answers the phone at work.*
→ “answers” is the action Michael does — it’s the main verb.
✔ This is a verb.

6. *I eat rice for lunch every day.*
→ “rice” is a thing we eat — a person, place, thing, or idea.
✔ This is a noun.

7. *The dog barks every day. It is too loud.*
→ “It” replaces *the dog* — a thing.
✔ This is a pronoun.

Now, let’s list all the underlined words with their parts of speech:
- quickly → adverb
- polite → adjective
- well → adverb
- She → pronoun
- answers → verb
- rice → noun
- It → pronoun

We also have a word bank below to drag into boxes. But the task only asks to choose the correct part of speech for each sentence (with blanks), and then drag the words — but since this is a text response, we’ll just give the correct part of speech for each blank (1–7).

So the answers for blanks 1–7 are:
1. adverb
2. adjective
3. adverb
4. pronoun
5. verb
6. noun
7. pronoun

Final Answer:
1. adverb
2. adjective
3. adverb
4. pronoun
5. verb
6. noun
7. pronoun
