This printable worksheet helps students practice grammar by filling in the missing pronouns for eight different sentences.

Let's solve this pronoun worksheet step by step. The task is to add the correct pronouns to each sentence so that it makes sense and flows naturally.

---

1. Jack had two houses. ____ houses were fancy.

- We need a pronoun that refers to Jack (a person).
- Since "houses" is plural, we need a possessive pronoun that matches Jack.
- His is the correct possessive pronoun for Jack.

✔ Answer: *His*
➡️ "Jack had two houses. His houses were fancy."

2. The dog ate too much. ____ tummy hurt after that.

- We're talking about the dog, so we need a pronoun that refers to the dog.
- "Tummy" is singular and belongs to the dog.
- The possessive pronoun for a dog (animal) in this context is its.

✔ Answer: *Its*
➡️ "The dog ate too much. Its tummy hurt after that."

---

3. That car is ____. We bought it two years ago.

- We need a pronoun that shows ownership of the car.
- The sentence says “We bought it,” so the car belongs to us.
- The correct possessive pronoun is ours.

✔ Answer: *ours*
➡️ "That car is ours. We bought it two years ago."

> Note: "Ours" is used without a noun because it replaces "our car".

4. The teacher taught the class. ____ learnt about sea mammals.

- The class learned something — so who did the learning?
- The subject of the second sentence should be the class.
- "They" is the appropriate pronoun to refer to the class (plural).

✔ Answer: *They*
➡️ "The teacher taught the class. They learnt about sea mammals."

---

5. The dog had puppies. ____ had five in total.

- The sentence talks about the dog having puppies.
- The next sentence says "____ had five in total."
- This refers to the dog (the mother), not the puppies.
- So we use She (assuming the dog is female, which is common in such contexts).

✔ Answer: *She*
➡️ "The dog had puppies. She had five in total."

6. Our house needed a letterbox. ____ dad built a new one.

- We are referring to our dad, so we need a pronoun that shows possession or reference to "our".
- The sentence needs a subject pronoun before "dad".
- "Our" is already used, but we need a subject pronoun like My or Our.
- But since the first sentence uses "Our", and the second says "____ dad", we want to say "Our dad" — so the blank is for Our.

Wait — actually, the structure is:
> "Our house needed a letterbox. ____ dad built a new one."

So the pronoun must go before "dad". It should be Our.

But note: "Our" is a possessive determiner, not a pronoun. However, in this context, it’s acceptable as the missing word.

But let’s check: Is there a better way?

Actually, "Our" fits perfectly here. The sentence means: "Our dad built a new one."

✔ Answer: *Our*
➡️ "Our house needed a letterbox. Our dad built a new one."

> Note: While "Our" is a determiner, it functions similarly to a pronoun in this case. The intended answer is likely Our.

7. All of the athletes were tired. ____ had run a big race.

- "All of the athletes" is the subject.
- The second sentence needs a pronoun that refers to them.
- "They" is the correct subject pronoun.

✔ Answer: *They*
➡️ "All of the athletes were tired. They had run a big race."

---

8. I invited ____ friends to my birthday. It was a fun day!

- We need a pronoun to show whose friends they are.
- The sentence says "I invited ____ friends" — so the friends belong to me.
- The correct possessive pronoun is my.

✔ Answer: *my*
➡️ "I invited my friends to my birthday. It was a fun day!"

---

✔ Final Answers:

1. His
2. Its
3. ours
4. They
5. She
6. Our
7. They
8. my
