Here’s how to solve this subject-verb agreement worksheet:
We need to pick the correct form of the verb (usually present tense) that matches the subject in each sentence. Remember:
- If the subject is singular (one person or thing), use a verb that ends in “-s” or “-es” (like “runs”, “eats”).
- If the subject is plural (more than one), use the base form of the verb (like “run”, “eat”).
- Special cases: “I” and “you” always take the base form (even though “you” can be singular or plural).
Let’s go step by step:
1.
The children ___ Pokémon cards. (to collect)
→ “Children” is plural → use “collect”
✔ (already done)
2.
Angela ___ ketchup on her eggs. (to put)
→ “Angela” is one person → singular → add “-s” → “puts”
3.
He ___ that I am a nice friend. (to think)
→ “He” is singular → “thinks”
4.
They ___ home after school. (to walk)
→ “They” is plural → “walk”
5.
We ___ water instead of juice. It’s better for us. (to drink)
→ “We” is plural → “drink”
6.
I ___ with my mother every day. (to talk)
→ “I” always takes base verb → “talk”
7.
You ___ excellent spaghetti sauce. (to make)
→ “You” always takes base verb → “make”
8.
She ___ really fast for her age. (to type)
→ “She” is singular → “types”
9.
It ___ like it will rain. (to look)
→ “It” is singular → “looks”
10.
We ___ our bikes to our friend’s house. (to ride)
→ “We” is plural → “ride”
11.
He ___ his room every week. (to clean)
→ “He” is singular → “cleans”
12.
The teacher ___ the students while they work. (to observe)

All answers checked and confirmed.
