📚 Quick Study Guide: Subject-Verb Agreement for Grade 3

• 🎯 What is it? Subject-verb agreement means your subject (who or what the sentence is about) and your verb (the action word) must match!
• 👤 Singular Subjects: If your subject is *one* person, place, thing, or idea (e.g., *he, she, it, a dog, the girl*), your verb usually needs an 's' at the end.
  • ✨ Example: The dog runs fast. (Dog is singular, runs is singular)
• 👥 Plural Subjects: If your subject is *more than one* person, place, thing, or idea (e.g., *they, we, dogs, the girls*), your verb usually does NOT need an 's'.
  • 🚀 Example: The dogs run fast. (Dogs are plural, run is plural)
• 🧠 Tricky Ones (I & You):
  • 🙋‍♀️ Even though 'I' is singular, it takes a plural verb form: I run, I eat.
  • 🗣️ 'You' always takes a plural verb form, whether you mean one person or many: You play, You sing.
• 💡 Special Verbs (To Be & To Have): These verbs change in a special way!
  • 👫 To Be:
    • Singular: He is happy. She is smart. It is fun.
    • Plural: They are happy. We are smart. You are fun.
  • 🤝 To Have:
    • Singular: He has a toy. She has a book.
    • Plural: They have toys. We have books.
