Skip the Christmas Common and Proper Nouns Worksheets! Try Out Our Christmas Printable Task Cards

Christmas is coming up, and what better way to celebrate is by integrating a bit of cheer into every subject? We’ve created a fun set of Christmas-themed common and proper noun task cards to help your upper elementary students review common and proper nouns. 

Students read through the task card and determine whether the underlined noun is common or proper. They will then record their answers on the recording sheet.

An answer sheet is included with your download for students to self-check their answers. 

More Ways to Use Your Christmas Activity Printable Cards

Incorporating task cards in the classroom can enhance engagement and provide a versatile tool for reinforcing concepts. Here are various instructional methods and strategies for using these task cards:

• Use your Common and Proper Nouns activity as independent practice. Distribute task cards to students for individual practice, allowing for self-directed learning.
• Try a Common and Proper Noun Jigsaw Activity. Encourage collaboration among students by assigning task cards to small groups and then rearranging students so that each new group has a representative from the initial groups. This promotes knowledge sharing and understanding of various topics.
• Use your common noun and proper noun activity printables as inserts for interactive notebooks.  Students can paste cards into notebooks to respond to prompts, creating an organized record of learning.
