Introduction Hello everyone, today we will be learning about proper nouns. To get started, can everyone please watch this short video to remind yourselves what proper nouns are? (Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l7MJp3xqNY8).

Lesson Outline 1. Explain what a proper noun is. 2. Practice writing out proper nouns on a worksheet. (Link: https://www.education.com/worksheet/article/proper-nouns-third-grade/) 3. Discuss common errors made when writing proper nouns. 4. Read out a passage containing multiple proper nouns and ask students to identify them.

Questioning To check for understanding throughout the lesson, ask questions such as: • What is the difference between a proper noun and a normal noun? • Can anyone name what a proper noun is? • What common errors do people make when writing proper nouns?

Assessment At the end of the lesson, ask students to complete a quick quiz. (Link: https://www.123test.com/proper-noun-quiz/)

Differentiation To challenge more advanced students offer them specific proper nouns and ask them to come up with suitable definitions or descriptions. For example, give students “London” and ask them to provide a definition such as “London is the capital city of England.”

Plenary To recap the lesson, ask for volunteers to write out as many proper nouns as they can within a given time. This can be done by drawing images onto the board or by simply writing them out.

Overall, the aim of this lesson is for students to understand the definition of a proper noun and to be able to correctly identify and write out a selection of proper nouns.
