Grade 2 Pronouns Worksheet

About this worksheet

Pronouns help writers avoid repeating the same noun again and again, but they only work when the reader can tell exactly who or what the pronoun means. Second graders often choose a pronoun that sounds right without checking its antecedent, or they use they when the sentence names only one person. This worksheet keeps pronouns inside full sentences so students can trace the relationship between the pronoun and the noun it replaces. Items ask students to identify antecedents, choose a pronoun that fits, notice possessive pronouns, and revise repeated names. Encourage your child to point from the pronoun back to the noun. If more than one noun could fit, the sentence probably needs revision. Clear pronouns should never make the reader guess.
