Whose Is It?

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is designed to help students practice forming possessive nouns using apostrophes. It features a series of sentences with blanks where students must fill in the possessive form of the provided singular nouns. The nouns are given in parentheses, and the task is to add an apostrophe and ‘s’ to the end of each noun to demonstrate ownership or association in the sentence context. For instance, the worksheet would have students transform “(Nia’s) happy dance” to indicate the dance belongs to Nia.

The objective of this worksheet is to educate students on how to properly use apostrophes to indicate possession. The task reinforces the grammatical rule that adding an apostrophe and ‘s’ to a singular noun signifies that the noun owns something. By practicing with actual sentences, students can better understand how possessive nouns fit into everyday language. The exercise is intended to enhance the students’ ability to express possession clearly and correctly in their writing.
