Step-by-step solution for: Grade 3 Parts of Speech Worksheets | Worsheets library
It looks like you've uploaded a "Parts of Speech Worksheet" that asks students to circle and label the Noun, Adjective, Verb, or Adverb in each sentence. Since I can't view images directly, I’ll help you solve this worksheet based on the text you provided.
Here is the worksheet with the sentences listed:
---
Directions: Circle and label the Noun, Adjective, Verb, or Adverb in each sentence.
1. Grandma rolled happily to the trick-or-treat line (5).
2. The movie played repeatedly as they dined (4).
3. Andy greeted the girl at grandma’s party (5).
4. He guided them expertly through the Galloween Calcare (3).
5. Grandma wrote down the details rapidly in her diary (3).
6. The girl scrambled the trip in her diary (5).
7. Andy and the girl looked eagerly at the creatures on the shore (8).
8. Grandma and the girl jumped quickly off the boat (5).
9. The girl saw the creatures slowly through a rose mask (3).
10. She looked carefully at the yellow fish (5).
11. Carefully, the sea lizard surrounded grandma and the girl (5).
12. The two lions chased and nipped one another playfully (5).
---
Now, let's go through each sentence and identify the key parts of speech as requested. We'll circle the word(s) and label them accordingly. Since this is text-based, I will indicate the words and their parts of speech.
---
1. Grandma rolled happily to the trick-or-treat line (5)
- Grandma → *Noun* (person)
- rolled → *Verb* (past tense of roll)
- happily → *Adverb* (modifies "rolled")
- trick-or-treat → *Noun* (compound noun)
- line → *Noun*
*(Total: 5 words identified)*
2. The movie played repeatedly as they dined (4)
- movie → *Noun*
- played → *Verb*
- repeatedly → *Adverb*
- dined → *Verb*
*(Total: 4 words identified)*
3. Andy greeted the girl at grandma’s party (5)
- Andy → *Noun*
- greeted → *Verb*
- girl → *Noun*
- grandma’s → *Noun* (possessive)
- party → *Noun*
*(Total: 5 words identified)*
4. He guided them expertly through the Galloween Calcare (3)
- guided → *Verb*
- expertly → *Adverb*
- Galloween Calcare → *Noun* (proper noun, likely fictional place)
*(Total: 3 words identified)*
5. Grandma wrote down the details rapidly in her diary (3)
- wrote → *Verb*
- rapidly → *Adverb*
- diary → *Noun*
*(Total: 3 words identified)*
6. The girl scrambled the trip in her diary (5)
- girl → *Noun*
- scrambled → *Verb*
- trip → *Noun*
- diary → *Noun*
- her → *Adjective* (possessive pronoun modifying "diary")
*(Total: 5 words identified)*
7. Andy and the girl looked eagerly at the creatures on the shore (8)
- Andy → *Noun*
- girl → *Noun*
- looked → *Verb*
- eagerly → *Adverb*
- creatures → *Noun*
- shore → *Noun*
- the → *Article* (not usually labeled unless specified; but "the" before nouns might be considered determiner)
- at → *Preposition* (not a part asked for, so skip)
Wait — we need 8 words. Let’s count:
- Andy, girl, looked, eagerly, creatures, shore, the (twice?)
Actually, “the” appears twice: "the girl", "the creatures", "the shore" — but only one “the” per noun.
So:
- Andy → *Noun*
- girl → *Noun*
- looked → *Verb*
- eagerly → *Adverb*
- creatures → *Noun*
- shore → *Noun*
- the (before girl) → *Determiner* (could be labeled as adjective-type)
- the (before shore) → *Determiner*
But “the” is not typically categorized as an adjective in most curricula. Perhaps they want:
- Andy, girl, looked, eagerly, creatures, shore, the, at? No — “at” is preposition.
Alternatively, maybe the 8 refers to total words in the sentence? But it says “in each sentence” — likely meaning identify 8 parts of speech.
Let's recheck:
- Andy – Noun
- girl – Noun
- looked – Verb
- eagerly – Adverb
- creatures – Noun
- shore – Noun
- the (before girl) – Determiner (often grouped with adjectives)
- the (before shore) – Determiner
But that’s still only 8 if we count both "the"s.
Or perhaps:
- Andy – Noun
- girl – Noun
- looked – Verb
- eagerly – Adverb
- creatures – Noun
- shore – Noun
- the (first) – Adjective (determiner)
- the (second) – Adjective (determiner)
→ That works if they accept “the” as an adjective (which some curricula do).
So:
- Andy → *Noun*
- girl → *Noun*
- looked → *Verb*
- eagerly → *Adverb*
- creatures → *Noun*
- shore → *Noun*
- the → *Adjective* (before girl)
- the → *Adjective* (before shore)
*(Total: 8)*
8. Grandma and the girl jumped quickly off the boat (5)
- Grandma → *Noun*
- girl → *Noun*
- jumped → *Verb*
- quickly → *Adverb*
- boat → *Noun*
*(Total: 5)*
9. The girl saw the creatures slowly through a rose mask (3)
- saw → *Verb*
- slowly → *Adverb*
- mask → *Noun*
*(Total: 3)*
10. She looked carefully at the yellow fish (5)
- She → *Pronoun* (can be considered a noun)
- looked → *Verb*
- carefully → *Adverb*
- yellow → *Adjective*
- fish → *Noun*
*(Total: 5)*
11. Carefully, the sea lizard surrounded grandma and the girl (5)
- Carefully → *Adverb*
- lizard → *Noun*
- surrounded → *Verb*
- grandma → *Noun*
- girl → *Noun*
*(Total: 5)*
12. The two lions chased and nipped one another playfully (5)
- lions → *Noun*
- chased → *Verb*
- nipped → *Verb*
- playfully → *Adverb*
- one → *Noun* (or pronoun) — but “one another” is a compound pronoun
- two → *Adjective* (number)
So:
- lions → *Noun*
- chased → *Verb*
- nipped → *Verb*
- playfully → *Adverb*
- two → *Adjective* (modifies "lions")
*(Total: 5)*
