Hello there! We can begin by giving definitions for each term:

A noun is a person, place, thing, or animal. It is often the subject of discussion.

A verb is a course of action or a word that links the subject to something else. It is often referred to as the ‘predicate’ of a sentence, which refers to what the course of action is the subject is doing.

An adjective is a word or phrase that shows description of the noun. It often comes before the subject so that it is clear.

A pronoun is a word that the subject refers to themselves as. This comes in words such as “he, she, him, her, his, hers.”

An adverb is a word that describes the verb; the typical context is used to emphasize what the verb is doing or how it is doing what it is doing.

Given the sentence, there is no specific noun. The word “hear” should be highlighted green, the word “spooky” should be highlighted red, the word “she” should be highlighted orange, and there is no specific adverb.

Hope this helps!
