Matching Noun Pairs

Students play a grammar matching game by pairing each common noun in one column with its proper noun equivalent in another. This activity helps reinforce the distinction between general and specific nouns through direct comparison. Learners strengthen recall and recognition of common nouns like “city” and their matching proper nouns such as “California.” The game-like format keeps students motivated while supporting visual learning and associative memory. This worksheet promotes conceptual clarity through interactive practice.
