Subject pronouns perform the action in a sentence (I, you, he, she, it, we, they). Object pronouns receive the action (me, you, him, her, it, us, them). Knowing the difference is key to writing clear and grammatically correct sentences. Think of it like this: subject pronouns are the actors, and object pronouns are the acted upon!
Match the term with its definition:
| Term | Definition |

| 1. Subject Pronoun | A. Receives the action of the verb. |
| 2. Object Pronoun | B. The pronoun that refers to a previously mentioned noun. |
| 3. Antecedent | C. Performs the action of the verb. |
| 4. Verb | D. Shows an action, occurrence, or state of being. |
| 5. Pronoun | E. A word that replaces a noun. |
Complete the paragraph with the correct pronoun (I, me, he, him, she, her, it, we, us, they, them):
