Parts of Speech Word Sorts

In order to work in some hands-on learning, I created some parts of speech word sorts. The best part about this hands-on activity is that they are NO PREP. Yep. Learners can cut the sort out themselves!

Six different sorts included in the free pack are:

  • Nouns: Person, Place, and Thing Sort
  • Noun, Verb, or Both Sort {words like play can be a noun and a verb}
  • Noun, Verb, or Adjective Sort
  • Noun, Verb, Adjective, or Pronoun Sort
  • Adverbs: How?, When?, Where? or How often? Sort
  • Adjective or Adverb Sort

set up head words for parts of speech word sorts

To use the sorts, learners put the head grammar words up at the top of their work space. A table top or floor works!

sorting parts of speech words

Then learners sort the words by their parts of speech. The words I included match those of about a 1st to 2nd grade level. If you’re doing these sorts with struggling learners or younger learners, be sure they know what each word says.

noun, verb, and adjective parts of speech sort - finished

This is an example of a finished sort. Learners can copy their sort or use some of the words in sentences.

If you’re unsure of where any of the words go within the sorts, there are color-coded answer keys that can help on the download.

Help students learn the difference between nouns, verbs, and adjectives with this cut-and-paste sorting worksheet. 

Use this teaching resource when identifying nouns, verbs, and adjectives.

Students cut out each word and paste them into the table under the correct heading. 

This worksheet is best used as independent practice to support your parts of speech lesson. It can also be used as a pre-lesson knowledge assessment to see what students already know, or as an exit ticket to gauge your students’ understanding of the material. 

In addition to individual student work time, this parts of speech worksheet can be used as an activity for your:

  • Guided writing group
  • Writing center
  • Whole-class review (via smartboard)

Scaffolding and Extension Tips: Nouns, Verbs, and Adjectives Worksheet

Challenge fast finishers to come up with more words for each section of the worksheet. Students can also put one word from each column in a sentence. 

If you have students struggling with the concepts, assign students to work with a partner or take a few of the parts of speech words off each section.

Easily Prepare This Resource for Your Students

Because this resource includes an answer sheet, we recommend you print one copy of the entire file. Then, make photocopies of the blank worksheet for students to complete.  

Turn this teaching resource into a sustainable activity! Print a few copies on cardstock and slip them into dry-erase sleeves. Instead of cutting, students can write the words in each column with a dry-erase marker, then erase and reuse. 

You can also project the worksheet onto a screen and work through it as a class by having students record their answers in their notebooks.
