Find And Circle

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is a grammar exercise designed to help students identify antecedents in sentences. Each question presents two related sentences; the first contains a noun, and the second contains a pronoun referring to that noun. Students are tasked with reading each pair of sentences and circling the noun in the first sentence that the pronoun in the second sentence replaces or refers to. This activity is meant to visually and cognitively reinforce the concept of antecedents in language use.

The purpose of the worksheet is to teach students about the relationship between pronouns and the nouns they replace, known as antecedents. By circling the antecedents, students learn to connect pronouns back to the appropriate nouns, ensuring clarity in writing and speech. This skill is fundamental in English grammar, as it prevents confusion over what or whom the pronouns are referring to. The exercise also aids in improving students’ reading comprehension by highlighting the importance of pronoun-antecedent agreement.
