First grade is an excellent time to start learning about the four main parts of speech in the English language. These four parts of speech are nouns, verbs, adjectives, and prepositions.

Adjectives are words that describe or modify nouns. They give more details about the noun by telling us what kind, how many, or what size it is. For example, in the sentence "The big brown dog ran quickly," "big" and "brown" are adjectives because they describe the dog, and "quickly" is an adverb because it describes how the dog ran.

Learning grammar can be fun! In 1st grade, students typically learn about three important parts of speech: nouns, verbs, and adjectives.
