Spotlight on Grammar: Pronouns
Spotlight on Grammar: Pronouns
Ages: 8-11
Grades: 3-6
Students make a good impression when they know which pronouns to use in speaking and in written language. These lessons use simple sentence structure, vocabulary, and readability to help students learn easily.
The effective lessons feature:
- simple, clear explanations of pronoun concepts
- appealing one-page lessons with plenty of practice activities
- step-by-step progression in difficulty to build success and motivation
- a pretest/posttest
The activities begin with identifying pronouns and their referents. Then students learn to distinguish and correctly use these pronoun types:
- possessive (e.g., mine his, hers)
- reflexive (e.g., myself, herself)
- interrogative (e.g., who, whose)
- demonstrative (e.g., these, those)
- relative (e.g., which, that)
- indefinite (e.g., all, neither, everyone)
- subject (e.g., he, they)
- object (me, it, them)
