Dolch Nouns Worksheets: What’s Included

This set of Dolch nouns worksheets includes sentence-based handwriting pages built around the noun words in the Dolch sight word list.

Each page includes:

one Dolch noun
a simple sentence using that word
handwriting lines for copying
a matching black-and-white illustration

The repeated format makes this packet easy to use for steady handwriting practice without overwhelming your child with a brand-new layout on each page. I intentionally created these pages with a simple layout to prevent distraction.

Ways to Use These Dolch Nouns Worksheets in Your Homeschool

There are several suggestions for using these worksheets with your own students included in the download, such as:

Use this packet to practice capitalization and punctuation. Review the three types of end marks and that every sentence must start with a capital letter. Also review that names (proper nouns) must be capitalized also.
For older students, identify all of the nouns or the verb in the sentence. In fact, one of the sentences for the Dolch noun ‘thing’ uses the definition of a noun. So feel free to start with that page when discussing grammar and parts of speech with your students.
Determine the subject and predicate of the sentence. If you are introducing simple sentence diagramming, have your child draw a vertical line between the subject and the predicate. Another option is to have your students underline the subject of the sentence once and the predicate twice.
Opportunities abound to practice phonics rules. Simply choose a word and examine its sounds and structure. Break it into syllables if it has more than one syllable. Determine long and short vowels, blends, digraphs, and plural words.
Print pages and place in a 3-ring binder. Use pages each day as Morning Work. If you are using these as simply review pages and your child can work on them independently, assign them as Morning Work to be completed during an independent school time.
