Five worksheets that take turns through the activities. Pages 1 and 4: students circle the one abstract noun in each sentence. Pages 2 and 5: students cut out nouns and sort them under concrete or abstract. Page 3: students read two sentences and write the abstract noun from the box that fits, such as brave and bravery. Every answer is worked out from the sentences themselves, and the answer keys mark each one.
Ask the five senses test: can you see it, hear it, touch it, taste it, or smell it? If not, it is abstract. Then have students write a sentence about a time they showed courage or kindness.
Talk about a favorite story character. Which qualities did they show: bravery, honesty, patience? Those words are abstract nouns.
Nouns for feelings, ideas, and qualities, like courage, kindness, and joy. Students find abstract nouns in sentences, sort them from concrete nouns, and write the noun that comes from a describing word.
