Pronoun-Antecedent Agreement Worksheet

Pronoun-Antecedent Agreement

Read each question carefully and follow the instructions. Remember that a pronoun must agree with its antecedent in number (singular/plural) and gender (masculine/feminine/neuter).

Choose the best pronoun to complete each sentence. Write your answer on the blank line.

2. The dog wagged   tail when it saw its owner.  

3. My brothers play soccer, and   are very good at it.  

4. The students finished   homework before playtime.  

5. John lost his pencil, so he asked if he could borrow  .  

Read each sentence. Choose the word that is the antecedent for the underlined pronoun.

1. My sister loves to sing, and she practices every day.

2. The birds built their nest in the tall tree.

Read each statement. Decide if the pronoun and its antecedent agree. Circle True or False.

2. Each student brought his or her lunch.

Rewrite each sentence to correct the pronoun-antecedent agreement error.
