Proper Noun Detectives

Last week we worked on the difference between common nouns and proper nouns.  We talked about how proper nouns are special nouns with special names.  To relate proper nouns with the real world, we looked around our classroom for proper nouns.  Each child got a "magnifying glass" and a proper noun detective sheet.  Next, they were off searching for proper nouns.  We met back together and wrote all the proper nouns we found.  They had a blast being detectives searching for proper nouns throughout our classroom.  As we were searching, we were introduced to a new friend to our class, Jay! Welcome Jay, I hope you enjoy being in our class!!!!
