Grade 2 Sentence Agreement Worksheet

About this worksheet

Sentence agreement means the subject and verb fit together. Children often speak correct agreement naturally, but written choices become tricky when the subject has describing words, a number word, or a plural ending. A second grader may write the birds sings because the verb sounds familiar, or the bus stop because they forget that one subject often takes a verb ending. This worksheet keeps agreement in complete sentences. Students choose the verb that matches the subject, identify the subject, revise incorrect sentences, and compare singular and plural forms. Encourage your child to find the subject first and decide whether it names one or more than one. That decision usually points to the verb form. Say the pair aloud slowly before answering.
