A Noun names a person, place, or thing. Singular nouns have no s at the end. Plural nouns have an s at the end.
A complete sentence tells a whole idea. An example is: My puppy naps. An incomplete sentence is missing information. An example is: My puppy.
A Naming Part of a sentence tells who or what. Example: Two frogs
A Telling Part of a sentence tells what happened. Example: jump.
Proper Nouns are special nouns that begin with a capital letter. Examples are: Mary, Publix, Beach Boulevard, Blessed Trinity Catholic School.
A Telling Sentence begins with a capital letter and ends with a period. Example: My cat sleeps with me.
An Asking Sentence begins with a capital letter and ends with a question mark. Example: When will we go to the park?
