🎭 Parts of Speech Adventure! 🚀
Let's explore the magical world of words together!
🎯 Did You Know?
Every word in English belongs to a special group called "Parts of Speech"! Think of them as different teams where each word has a special job to do in sentences!
🏠
NOUN
What is it? A noun is a naming word! It names people, places, animals, or things.
Examples:
- People: boy, girl, teacher, doctor
- Places: school, park, home, city
- Animals: cat, dog, elephant, bird
- Things: book, car, apple, toy
💡 Memory Tip: If you can touch it, see it, or count it, it's probably a NOUN!

VERB
What is it? A verb is an action word! It tells us what someone or something is doing.
Examples:
- Action: run, jump, sing, dance
- Thinking: think, believe, know, understand
- Being: am, is, are, was, were
- Having: have, has, had, own
💡 Memory Tip: Ask "What is happening?" - the answer is usually a VERB!

ADJECTIVE
What is it? An adjective is a describing word! It tells us more about a noun.
Examples:
- Colors: red, blue, green, yellow
- Sizes: big, small, huge, tiny
- Feelings: happy, sad, excited, angry
- Qualities: soft, hard, smooth, rough
💡 Memory Tip: Adjectives make nouns more interesting! "The BIG red ball"

Examples:
- How: quickly, slowly, loudly, quietly
- When: now, later, yesterday, always
- Where: here, there, everywhere, outside
- How much: very, quite, extremely, almost
💡 Memory Tip: Many adverbs end in "-ly" like quickly, happily, carefully!
👥
PRONOUN
What is it? A pronoun takes the place of a noun. Instead of saying "Sarah" again and again, we can say "she"!
Examples:
- Personal: I, you, he, she, it, we, they
- Possessive: my, your, his, her, our, their
- Demonstrative: this, that, these, those
- Question: who, what, which, whose
💡 Memory Tip: Pronouns are shortcuts! They replace nouns to avoid repetition.

Examples:
- Position: on, in, under, above, beside
- Direction: to, from, through, across, around
- Time: at, during, before, after, since
- Others: with, without, about, for, by
💡 Memory Tip: "The cat is ON the mat" - ON shows where the cat is!

CONJUNCTION
What is it? A conjunction is a joining word! It connects words, phrases, or sentences together.
Examples:
- Simple: and, but, or, so, yet
- Examples: "I like pizza AND ice cream"
- Examples: "It's raining BUT I'm happy"
- Examples: "Do you want cake OR cookies?"
💡 Memory Tip: Conjunctions are like bridges connecting words and ideas!

Examples:
- Surprise: Oh! Wow! Amazing!
- Joy: Yay! Hooray! Awesome!
- Pain: Ouch! Ow! Ugh!
- Greeting: Hello! Hi! Hey!
💡 Memory Tip: Interjections show BIG feelings! They often stand alone with "!"
