Parts of Speech

Parts of Speech

Words have different jobs in a sentence. These jobs are called parts of speech! Here are some important ones:

  • Nouns – Name of a person, place, or thing (e.g., dog, school, Emma).
  • Verbs – Action words (e.g., run, jump, eat).
  • Adjectives – Words that describe nouns (e.g., big, red, happy).
  • Articles – Special words that come before nouns (a, an, the).
  • Articles

    The special words that come before nouns (a, an, the) are known as articles. In this page, you will find worksheets based on articles for Grade 2.
