Pronoun Agreement Worksheets with Answer Keys: Practice Makes Perfect

📚 Topic Summary

Pronoun agreement means using pronouns (like he, she, it, they) correctly so that they match the nouns they refer to (called antecedents) in number (singular or plural) and gender. For example, if you're talking about a single girl, you'd use "she" or "her." If you're talking about multiple students, you'd use "they" or "them." Getting this right makes your writing clear and easy to understand!
