Noun, verb or both?
Drag the words into the correct boxes. When you are ready, use the 'Mark' button to see if you're right.
If you need a little help, use the 'Clues' button.
Discussion points
- Can you put the words in the ‘both’ category into sentences?
- Have you used the word as a noun or verb?
Teaching tips:
After trying this activity, try the ‘Nouns and verbs quiz’. It has two rounds; the first asks children to identify nouns and verbs, and the second asks whether a word is a noun, verb or both.
