Noun sorting worksheet for kids to categorize words into People, Places, and Things.

Let’s solve this step by step.

We are given a list of words at the bottom of the page. Our job is to sort them into three categories:

- People → words that name humans or roles people have
- Places → words that name locations or areas
- Things → words that name objects, items, or non-living things

Let’s go through each word one by one and decide which category it belongs to.

List of words:

1. grandma → person → People
2. pencil → object → Things
3. water → substance/object → Things
4. country → location → Places
5. woman → person → People
6. city → location → Places
7. tree → plant/object → Things
8. cloud → natural thing → Things
9. book → object → Things
10. teacher → person → People
11. store → place → Places

14. state → location → Places

Now let’s group them correctly:

People:
- grandma
- woman
- teacher
- policeman

- singer

→ That’s 6 people.

Places:

- store
- office
- state
- playground

→ That’s 6 places.

Things:
- pencil
- water
- tree
- cloud

→ That’s 6 things.

Perfect — 6 in each column. All words are used once. No duplicates or leftovers.

Final Answer:
People: grandma, woman, teacher, policeman, baby, singer
Places: country, city, store, office, state, playground
Things: pencil, water, tree, cloud, book, rock
