Parts of Speech Activity

I’ve found the trick to teaching nouns verbs and adjectives to kids is to make it not feel like they are learning at all – make it FUN! When I use colorful clipart and hands-on activities my students are begging to learn. So as we work on teaching parts of speach to grade 1, grade 2, and grade 3  – I knew we needed to use a parts of speech activity. Since it is spring, I decided that a cute bee parts of speech craft fit the bill perfectly.  Whether you are a parent, teacher, or homeschooler – you will love this noun verb adjective practice.

Teaching nouns verbs and adjectives

Before we get to our craft, let’s talk about how to introduce parts of speech to kids in a way that’s fun and engaging. As a teacher, I’ve found that breaking down these concepts into bite-sized chunks is key.  Start by explaining what parts of speech are in simple terms.

• Nouns are words that name people, places, or things (like “bee” or “umbrella”)
• Adjectives are words that describe nouns (like “busy” or “colorful”)
• Verbs are action words (like “fly” or “dance”)

Next, get hands-on with some interactive activities. Play games like “Parts of Speech Bingo” or “Mad Libs” to reinforce learning in a playful way. You can also create word banks with examples of each part of speech and challenge your kids to come up with their own sentences using those words.

Now, let’s talk about adding in some fun into our learning with parts of speech crafts! The key is to make it hands-on and visually stimulating. After all, who says learning can’t be creative?

One idea is to create a parts of speech collage using magazine cutouts. Have your kids flip through magazines and cut out words that represent nouns, adjectives, and verbs. Then, glue them onto a poster board or canvas to create a colorful word collage.

Another fun activity is creating parts of speech puppets. Use popsicle sticks or old socks to make puppets, then write different parts of speech on each one. Your kids can then use the puppets to act out sentences and identify the different parts of speech as they go.

Alright, now let’s get to the bee craft – our printable parts of speech craft! Here’s how to use it:

1. Start by downloading and printing out the printable craft template.
2. Cut out the bee head, umbrella, and the images representing adjectives, nouns, and verbs.
3. Have your kids sort the images into the correct categories. For example, they’ll place the images of words like “colorful” or “buzzing” onto the umbrella (adjectives), and words like “bee” or “flower” onto the bee head (nouns).
4. Once all the images are sorted, glue them onto the craft to create a colorful parts of speech masterpiece!
5. As your kids work on the craft, take the opportunity to reinforce the concepts of nouns, adjectives, and verbs. Ask them questions like, “What does this word describe?” or “What action is this word showing?”
