St. Patrick's Day grammar worksheet focusing on identifying and changing sentence subjects.

Explanation:
We need to do two things for each sentence:
1. Underline the subject (the person, place, thing, or idea that the sentence is about — usually who or what is doing the action or being described).
2. Rewrite the sentence with a new subject, keeping the rest of the sentence structure the same (or adjusting slightly so it still makes sense).

Let’s go through each sentence one by one:

1. *Dr. Murphy checked my reflexes.*
- Subject: Dr. Murphy
- Rewrite: *The nurse checked my reflexes.* (or any other person/role doing the same action)

2. *The train to Boston is right on time.*
- Subject: The train to Boston
- Rewrite: *The bus to New York is right on time.*

3. *Last week, the St. Patrick’s Day parade was held.*
- Subject: the St. Patrick’s Day parade
- Rewrite: *Last week, the Halloween parade was held.*

4. *Our class took a field trip and walked the Freedom Trail.*
- Subject: Our class
- Rewrite: *My family took a field trip and walked the Freedom Trail.*

5. *Ireland is a country in Europe.*
- Subject: Ireland
- Rewrite: *France is a country in Europe.*

6. *Paul Revere is a figure from early American history.*
- Subject: Paul Revere
- Rewrite: *Betsy Ross is a figure from early American history.*

7. *Shannon Delaney performed the Irish step dance.*
- Subject: Shannon Delaney
- Rewrite: *Michael O’Leary performed the Irish step dance.*

8. *Corned beef and cabbage is my favorite meal.*
- Subject: Corned beef and cabbage (treated as a single dish → singular verb “is” is correct)
- Rewrite: *Shepherd’s pie is my favorite meal.*

9. *Green, white, and orange are the colors of my flag.*
- Subject: Green, white, and orange (three items → plural, so verb is “are”)
- Rewrite: *Red, white, and blue are the colors of my flag.*

10. *A four-leaved clover is a symbol of good luck.*
- Subject: A four-leaved clover
- Rewrite: *A horseshoe is a symbol of good luck.*

Now, since the task asks to *underline the subject* and *rewrite the sentence and change the subject*, we’ll present the rewritten sentences only (as the underlining can’t be shown in plain text, but the subject is clearly identified in each rewrite).

Final Answer:
1. The nurse checked my reflexes.
2. The bus to New York is right on time.
3. Last week, the Halloween parade was held.
4. My family took a field trip and walked the Freedom Trail.
5. France is a country in Europe.
6. Betsy Ross is a figure from early American history.
7. Michael O’Leary performed the Irish step dance.
8. Shepherd’s pie is my favorite meal.
9. Red, white, and blue are the colors of my flag.
10. A horseshoe is a symbol of good luck.
