Add A Predicate

Worksheet Description

This worksheet provides a series of incomplete sentences, each beginning with a compound subject. A compound subject consists of two or more individual subjects that are joined by a coordinating conjunction such as “and” or “or” and share the same predicate. The worksheet presents pairs of nouns, such as names of people, objects, or concepts, and asks the student to add a predicate to complete each sentence, thereby practicing the formation of sentences with compound subjects.

The purpose of this worksheet is to teach students how to effectively use compound subjects in sentence construction. By providing only the subjects, it encourages students to think about how different subjects can be involved in a single action or state of being. It helps to build their understanding of subject-verb agreement when the subject is compound. Additionally, this exercise aids in expanding their creative writing skills by allowing them to formulate a variety of predicates to match the given subjects.
