Do your students struggle to grasp the difference between masculine and feminine irregular nouns? This noun-sorting activity will give them hands-on practice with this often tricky topic! In this activity, your students will sort the given list of 36 Spanish irregular nouns into two categories: masculine or feminine. You could easily adapt this activity for other nouns or adjectives, simply by providing your own list. In addition to the hands-on practice, this resource also includes two worksheet versions with the same nouns.

This resource contains:

• one noun sorting sheet
• one page of thirty-six Spanish nouns with dotted lines for cutting
• one worksheet where students choose between masculine and feminine and translate the nouns to English
• one worksheet where students choose between masculine and feminine and write an original sentence in Spanish using the indicated noun
• answer keys for the sentence sorting sheet and both worksheets
• tips for using the resource and a table of contents

This activity works well individually and in small groups and would be a great introductory activity (by using inductive reasoning), application, or review activity. Although designed for use in level one, it also makes a great review for Spanish two or three.
