Let’s go step by step to solve the remaining questions on the worksheet.

We are practicing the verb “to be” — that means using am, is, or are correctly depending on who or what we’re talking about.

Here’s a quick reminder:
- Use am with I
- Use is with he, she, it, or one person/thing
- Use are with you, we, they, or more than one person/thing

Now let’s look at each question:

---

Question 4: What is it?
Picture: One book
Options:
- am a book → (only for “I”)
- is a book → (for “it” — one thing)
- are a book → (for plural)

So we circle: is a book
Then write the sentence: It is a book.

---

Question 5: Who are we?
Picture: Two kids together (we = me + someone else)
Options:
- am a student → (only for “I”)
- is a student → (for one person)
- are a student → ⚠️ Wait — this says “a student” (singular), but “we” is plural. So actually, none of these options perfectly match… BUT looking at the pattern from earlier questions, they probably meant to say “are students” — however, in the image, all three options say “a student”. That might be a typo in the worksheet.

But wait — let’s check the original image again carefully.

Actually, looking back at Question 2: “Who are they?” → option was “are students” (plural).
In Question 5: “Who are we?” → options are:
→ am a student
→ is a student
→ are a student ← this should probably be “are students”, but as written, it’s still the best choice because “we” needs “are”, even if the noun isn’t pluralized correctly here.

However — in real grammar, “We are a student” is incorrect. It should be “We are students.” But since the worksheet gives us only these choices, and “are” is the correct verb for “we”, we pick are a student — even though it’s not perfect English. Maybe it’s a trick or error in the worksheet.

BUT — wait! Let me double-check the actual image provided.

Looking again: In Question 5, the options are:

> am a student
> is a student
> are a student

And the picture shows two children — so “we” = plural.

The correct grammatical answer would be “are students” — but that’s not an option. However, among the given choices, “are a student” is the only one with the correct verb (“are”) for “we”.

This seems like a mistake in the worksheet. But since we have to choose from what’s given, and based on how the other questions work (like Q2: “they are students”), perhaps there’s a misprint.

Wait — let me re-express: Maybe the worksheet intends for us to ignore the noun number and just focus on the verb? No, that doesn’t make sense.

Alternatively — maybe I misread. Let me check the user-uploaded image description again.

Actually, in the original problem statement, the user included the full text of the worksheet. For question 5, it says:

> 5. Who are we?
> am a student is a student are a student

But in question 2: “Who are they?” → options were “am students / is students / are students” — note: “students” plural.

So for consistency, question 5 *should* have “are students” — but it doesn’t. This is likely a typo.

However, since we must answer based on what’s presented, and “we” requires “are”, we select are a student — even though it’s grammatically awkward.

But hold on — let’s think like a student doing homework. The teacher probably expects us to match subject + verb, and maybe overlook the noun agreement for now? Or perhaps it’s intentional to test attention?

Actually, no — let’s look at question 6 too.

---

Question 6: What are they?
Picture: Stack of books (plural)
Options:
- am books →
- is books →
- are books → (correct for plural “they”)

Sentence: They are books.

Back to question 5: Since “we” is plural, and the only option with “are” is “are a student”, we’ll go with that — but note: in real life, you’d say “We are students.”

Perhaps the worksheet has a printing error. But for now, we follow the pattern.

Wait — another thought: Maybe in question 5, the intended correct answer is missing, but since “are” is the right verb, we pick it anyway.

Alternatively — could “are a student” ever be correct? Only if “we” refers to a group acting as one unit — like “We are a team” — but “student” is countable and singular, so no.

Given all this, I think the safest approach is to assume the worksheet meant to write “are students” for question 5, but since it didn’t, and we must choose from given options, we pick are a student — and write the sentence as We are a student. — even though it’s not standard.

But that feels wrong.

Let me check online or recall common worksheets — often, for “we”, they use “are students”.

Wait — perhaps I made a mistake reading the options.

Looking back at the user’s input:

For question 5:

> 5. Who are we?
> am a student is a student are a student

Yes, that’s what’s written.

But in question 2: “Who are they?” → options include “are students” (plural).

So why is question 5 different? Probably a typo.

As an educational assistant, I should point out the issue, but since the instruction is to solve accurately and provide final answer, and assuming the worksheet expects us to match subject-verb agreement primarily, I’ll go with:

Circle: are a student
Write: We are a student.

But I’m uncomfortable with that.

Alternative idea: Maybe “are a student” is acceptable in some contexts? No, not really.

Perhaps the student is supposed to notice the error? But the directions don’t say that.

Let’s look at the example and previous answers:

Example: “She is a teacher.” — correct.

Q1: “He is a teacher.” — correct.

Q2: “They are students.” — correct.

Q3: “I am a student.” — correct.

So for Q5, it should be “We are students.” — but the option isn’t there.

Unless... wait! In the user’s message, for question 5, the options are listed as:

> am a student is a student are a student

But perhaps it’s a formatting error, and it’s supposed to be “are students”? Because in Q2, it’s “are students”.

Maybe when the user typed it, they missed the 's'.

Given that, and to be educationally responsible, I think the intended answer is are students, and the worksheet has a typo.

But since I can't change the worksheet, and must answer based on what's given, I'll proceed with the available options.

Final decision for Q5: Circle are a student, write We are a student. — even though it's not ideal.

For Q6: Clearly are books, and They are books.

Now, let's compile the answers for the unanswered questions (4,5,6):

---

Question 4:
Circle: is a book
Sentence: It is a book.

Question 5:
Circle: are a student *(note: should be "are students", but based on given options)*
Sentence: We are a student.

Question 6:
Circle: are books
Sentence: They are books.

---

But I want to verify once more.

Perhaps in question 5, "are a student" is meant to be selected, and the sentence is "We are a student." — maybe in a context where "we" refers to a class or group identified as "a student body"? Unlikely for this level.

Given the audience is young learners, it's probably a typo, and the expected answer is to use "are" with "we", regardless of the noun.

So I'll go with that.

Final Answers for the blank questions:

4. Circle: is a book → Sentence: It is a book.
5. Circle: are a student → Sentence: We are a student.
6. Circle: are books → Sentence: They are books.

Note: For question 5, the sentence is grammatically incorrect; it should be "We are students." But based on the worksheet's options, this is the best available choice.

──────────────────────────────────────

Final Answer:
4. Circle: is a book; Write: It is a book.
5. Circle: are a student; Write: We are a student.
6. Circle: are books; Write: They are books.
