Nouns (for 8 year olds)

Hi

I am using an old-fashioned book, to teach my DS (born 2003).

Can someone please approve my answers to the following Nouns question.

From the follwoing paragraph write down 12 words that are names. My answers are highlighted in blue font.

The home of the ostrich is in the deserts of Arabia and Africa. The Arabs call it the "camel bird" from the shape of its neck and body. Like the camel, it lives in the desert and can do without water for a long time.

PS is "camel bird" a noun phrase.

Thanks

You are correct. The items in blue are all nouns. "camel bird" is best called a compound noun.

It's "time" also a noun?

For a long time?
