English
This Grade 6 English grammar worksheet gives students focused practice identifying pronouns and their antecedents in complete sentences. Across 15 multiple-choice questions, students find pronouns such as it, her, their, and I; identify the nouns or noun groups those pronouns replace; distinguish pronouns from other words; and define both key grammar terms. Examples include singular antecedents such as ocean and concert, as well as compound antecedents such as Emma and Priscilla and the boy and the girl. The worksheet is useful for introducing or reviewing pronoun–antecedent relationships before students apply them in their own writing. Its repeated question structure lets teachers check whether students can recognize a pronoun, locate the word it refers to, and interpret singular and plural references in context. This free printable worksheet includes a complete answer key, making it suitable for independent practice, classwork, homework, or a short grammar assessment.

This Grade 6 worksheet uses 15 multiple-choice questions to help students identify pronouns and determine the nouns or noun groups they replace. Students work with examples such as it referring to ocean or concert, her referring to mother, and their referring to plural groups such as Emma and Priscilla.
First review that a pronoun takes the place of a noun and that its antecedent is the word the pronoun replaces. Then model one sentence by circling the pronoun and underlining its antecedent before students complete the multiple-choice items, including the questions that ask them to identify each term directly. Use the compound examples with their to discuss how a pronoun can refer to more than one person.
Students may choose the pronoun itself instead of the noun it replaces, especially in the repeated it examples about the ocean and concert. They may also select a nearby word such as classes or tests rather than the people represented by their, or confuse a non-pronoun such as is with pronouns such as me, he, they, or I. Check that students distinguish identifying a pronoun from identifying its antecedent.
