The Witches; Pronouns

The Witches!

Please turn to page 9 (bottom of the page, last paragraph). Let's continue reading. Ms. Springer will randomly call on people to read aloud after we (your teachers) read chapter one. When you are called please read at least 1 paragraph out loud for the class. This is practice reading out loud and is required.

Pronouns!

• Pronouns replace nouns.
• An antecedent is the NOUN (person, place, thing, idea) that the pronoun is replacing!
• Personal pronouns refer to NOUNS and usually replace the subject or direct object of a sentence.
• The SUBJECT of a sentence is the NOUN that the sentence is about.
• Personal pronouns come in three different types:
• first person (I, me, my, our, ours, us, we)
• second person (you, yours)
• third person (he, she, it, her, him, their, theirs, they)
