About nouns, verbs and adjectives

Children read each word and write it in the right column. The words are ones that are almost always used one way, so every word has one right column.

Choose nouns and verbs only, or all three, and the grade band.

Printing

US Letter or A4, portrait: choose your paper size above. Print at 100 percent (actual size). Use "Black and white" for the copier, or "Color" for display pages and mini books.
