This challenging worksheet stretches kindergarten thinkers with multiple choice questions that ask them to pick Texas as the proper noun, choose We went to Lake Tahoe as the sentence with a proper noun, and decide that Saturday is a proper noun while flower is a common one.

Fill-in-the-blank questions then push children further: they spot store as the common noun in I walked to the store, label doctor as a common noun, remember that names of states like Texas need a capital letter, and identify dog as the common noun for the pet name Spot. This deeper practice gets young learners ready for first grade grammar work and confident sentence writing.
