I will solve this possessive nouns worksheet by analyzing each box and selecting the correct pronoun to complete the sentence. I'll go through each one step-by-step.
Box 1: Amy and her book
- The text says "This is Amy." and shows a girl with a book.
- The sentence to complete is "This is ______ book."
- The options are "her" and "his".
- Since Amy is a female name, the correct possessive pronoun is "her".
Box 2: Patrick and his football
- The text says "This is Patrick." and shows a boy with a football.
- The sentence to complete is "This is ______ football."
- The options are "their" and "his".
- Since Patrick is a male name, the correct possessive pronoun is "his".
Box 3: John and Beth and their dog
- The text says "This is John and Beth." and shows a boy and a girl with a dog.
- The sentence to complete is "This is ______ dog."
- The options are "my" and "their".
- Since there are two people (John and Beth), the correct possessive pronoun is "their".
Box 4: "This is me" and my cat
- The text says "This is me." and shows a girl with a cat.
- The sentence to complete is "This is ______ cat."
- The options are "his" and "my".
- Since the statement is "This is me," indicating the speaker is referring to themselves, the correct possessive pronoun is "my".
The completed worksheet should have:
- Box 1: "her"
- Box 2: "his"
- Box 3: "their"
- Box 4: "my"
This completes the task of selecting the correct possessive noun for each sentence.
