In this fun worksheet, you learn about common and proper nouns! Remember, proper nouns are always capitalized. After you understand the difference between the two, there will be a list of common nouns for you to read. Your job is to creatively come up with a corresponding proper noun for each common noun.
Kids can tell the difference between common and proper nouns by remembering that common nouns refer to general items or concepts, like "dog," "city," or "school," and are not capitalized unless they start a sentence. Proper nouns, on the other hand, name specific people, places, or things and always begin with a capital letter, such as "Buddy" (a dog's name), "New York," or "Lincoln Elementary School."
