#1068. Noun Scattegories

Language, level: Elementary
Posted Fri Apr 30 08:33:09 PDT 1999 by Patti Henderson ().
Frankston Elementary, Frankston, Tx.
Materials Required: Long sheet of paper and pencil
Activity Time: 20-30 minutes
Concepts Taught: Review Nouns (person, place, or thing)

This is a great review of nouns.
Divide the paper into 3 sections and label them Person
Place or Thing.
Divide the students into as many groups as you want.
Give the students 3-5minutes to think of as many nouns
that name a person. Then do the same with the nouns that
name a place and a thing.
Once their paper is filled they begin by groups calling out
the nouns that they have written if another group has the
same noun then both groups cross off that noun.
The group that has the most nouns without being crossed off
is the winner.
