grades three through six. An explanation for each
grammatical classification, along with examples, is
included below to help parents children their children
grammatical lessons.
Verb: Expresses actions, events or states of being. For
example, in the sentence 'Billy throws the ball,' 'throws'
is the verb.

2.  Adverb: Modifies a verb, adjective, phrase,
clause or another adverb. Adverbs can be
found in various parts of a sentence but
usually ends with '-ly.' For example, in the
sentence 'Billy quickly throws the ball,'
'quickly' is the adverb.

3.  Noun: Used to name an abstract idea, animal, person,
place or thing. Sentences typically contain more than
one noun. For example, in the sentence 'Billy met his
friends at the zoo,' the words 'Billy,' 'friends' and 'zoo'
are all nouns. Pronoun: A word that replaces a noun to
prevent repetition of the same words. For example, in
the sentence 'He was glad they enjoyed looking at
exotic animals,' the words 'he' and 'they' are pronouns
replacing the nouns 'Billy' and 'friends.'

4.  Adjective: Describes or quantifies a noun or
pronoun. Adjectives usually precede the word they
are modifying. For example, in the sentence 'Billy
washed his aqua shirt at the Laundromat,' the
word 'aqua' is an adjective that modifies 'shirt.'
Preposition: Acts as a link between nouns,
pronouns and phrases to other words in a
sentence.

shirt at the Laundromat,' the word 'at' is the
preposition. Conjunction: Also serve as a link between
words or phrases. Sometimes conjunctions also act as
prepositions or adverbs. For example, in the sentence
'Billy swims at the pool but not at the lake,' the word
'but' is the conjunction. Interjection: Conveys emotion
in a sentence. For example, in the sentence 'Ouch, I
stubbed my toe,' 'ouch' is the interjection.
