Collective Nouns

With Common Core, 2nd graders now need to know commonly used collective nouns. In my previous post, I showed the anchor chart that we created using some of these common collective nouns. For this activity, the students chose one collective noun, wrote a sentence using the noun and created an illustration to go with it. We used construction paper and markers/crayons to create a mixed media effect. They came out great!

Collective Nouns

Hello Teachers!

With the Common Core standards, grammar has changed a lot! Students in 2nd grade need to know about collective nouns now. This is an anchor chart I did with my class today. I chose collective nouns that would be more commonly used or heard by the students. They knew only one or two of these collective nouns before this activity, so I'm glad this standard has been added to the Common Core. They enjoyed creating the chart, and we will continue our study of these nouns :)
