1. Let’s review!
Nouns name people, places, things, and ideas
Common nouns name things in a general way
Examples: boy, book, car
Common nouns are only capitalized if they are
the first word of a sentence.
Proper nouns name things in a specific way
Examples: John, Romeo and Juliet, Porsche
Proper nouns are ALWAYS capitalized

Read each sentence below. Decide if
the underlined noun is common or
proper.
1- Nancy isn’t here today.
2- The nurse gave me a shot.
3- I like popcorn.
4- Have you read that book?
