About this resource
A three-page Year 2 grammar worksheet covering the foundation terminology of the NC English Appendix 2: the four main word classes (noun, verb, adjective, adverb) and the four sentence types (statement, question, exclamation, command). Designed to move children from using these features to naming them — which is the specific Y2 shift the curriculum requires.
Page 1 introduces nouns and verbs through a friendly story. Page 2 adds adjectives and asks children to expand bare sentences. Page 3 covers the four sentence types with a visual sorting task. Full answer key with examples of accepted alternative answers — important for grammar, where multiple words can legitimately be tagged.
