Introduction

(5 minutes)
  • Create a T-chart on the board, labeled "Pronoun" and "Not Pronoun."
  • Display a list of words (e.g. computer, he, I, bird, run, it, them, us, she, they, acorn, pen, drive, me).
  • Ask students to help you sort the words into the two sections of the T-chart.
  • Review the definition of pronoun as a word that replaces a noun in a sentence.
  • Explain to students that today's lesson will not only focus on words that are pronouns, but it will delve deeper into two main types of pronouns: subject and object.
