Noun Check-Up Quiz Worksheet for 1st Grade

About this worksheet

Seven questions that pull a whole nouns unit onto one page. It opens by asking what a noun actually is, with an action word and a describing word as the wrong answers, then asks for the nouns in two sentences and for a child’s own examples of people, places and things.

The write-your-own questions are what make it a real check. Circling a noun someone else wrote is one thing, but coming up with three places without help shows the idea has landed. The last sentence, Max and Lily ride the bus to school, has four nouns and two of them are names, so it catches a child who has forgotten that names count.

Use it at the end of a unit, or at the start to see where a class already is.
