As children become readers, they must understand the parts of a sentence. Parts of a sentence include nouns (words that name people, places, or things), verbs (words that show action), adjectives (words that describe nouns), adverbs (words that describe verbs) and articles (words that define nouns – a, the). Children will move from simple sentences to more complex sentences encountered in their reading and writing.

Before showing the pictures cards, clip art, or photographs have your students name five nouns around the classroom. Then have them name verbs that go with the nouns said.
Next, show students different pictures. Have students say a noun and then a verb for each picture.
Possible nouns would include: boys, children, or kids. Possible verbs would include: eat, slurp or lick.
