This Grade 7 English grammar worksheet is a 26-question multiple-choice posttest on pronoun-antecedent agreement. Students identify indefinite pronouns and antecedents, then select pronouns that agree with singular, plural, and possessive antecedents in sentences using words such as each, everyone, nobody, someone, and some. The questions also reinforce choosing precise forms such as her, his or her, its, their, my, and your in context. This free printable worksheet helps teachers check whether students can connect a pronoun to the noun or indefinite pronoun it refers to and apply agreement rules independently. It includes a complete answer key for efficient review, reteaching, or post-instruction assessment.

Use students' explanations—not just their selected letters—to discuss why a pronoun fits its antecedent.

What mistakes should I watch for on this pronoun-antecedent agreement worksheet?

Watch for students choosing their automatically after singular indefinite pronouns such as each, everyone, nobody, and someone, instead of selecting the form expected by the item.
