Proper Noun Worksheet for Kids: Fill-in-the-Blanks and Identify!

This worksheet teaches children to tell the difference between a common noun and a proper noun, the specific, capitalized name of a particular person, place, or thing, which is foundational for both grammar and correct capitalization in their own writing. Ages four to six are at the right stage to start noticing that names like 'London' or 'Sara' get capital letters while general words like 'city' or 'girl' do not.

How to use this worksheet

Read each sentence together first, pausing at the blank to talk about what kind of word is missing. Have your child choose the correct proper noun to fill in the blank, writing it carefully with a capital letter at the start. After completing the fill-in-the-blank section, move to the second part of the page, where they tick the proper noun from a set of given word options. Review the page together and ask your child to explain why each word they chose is a proper noun rather than a common one.

Extension activities

  • Go through a family photo and have your child name the proper nouns for people, pets, and places shown.
  • Draw pictures to represent a few proper nouns, like their school's name or their street.
  • Play a quick sorting game with word cards, splitting them into 'proper noun' and 'common noun' piles.
