Let’s work through this step by step.
This worksheet is about identifying
pronouns in sentences and figuring out what
type they are. There are three types mentioned:
1.
Possessive pronoun – shows ownership (like *mine, yours, his, hers*)
2.
Relative pronoun – connects a phrase to a noun (like *who, which, that, whom*)
3.
Indefinite pronoun – doesn’t refer to anything specific (like *all, any, each, some, several*)
We need to go sentence by sentence, find the pronoun, and write its type.
---
Sentence 1:
*The movie that Katie saw was fantastic.*
→ The word “that” is connecting “movie” to “Katie saw”. It’s introducing a description of the movie.
→ That’s a
relative pronoun.

Sentence 2:
*Are these sunglasses yours?*
→ “yours” means “your sunglasses” — it shows ownership.
→ That’s a
possessive pronoun.
---
Sentence 3:
*Something seems wrong with this picture.*
→ “Something” doesn’t point to one specific thing — it’s vague.
→ That’s an
indefinite pronoun.
---
Sentence 4:
*Did you do any homework today?*
→ “any” is not pointing to a specific amount or item — it’s general.
→ That’s an
indefinite pronoun.
---
Sentence 5:
*We let our dog run free for the afternoon.*
→ “our” shows who owns the dog — it’s possessive.
→ That’s a
possessive pronoun.
---
Sentence 6:
*The lady who lives in that house bought a new car.*
→ “who” connects “lady” to “lives in that house” — it describes the lady.
→ That’s a
relative pronoun.
---
Sentence 7:
*None of these people have heard the song.*
→ “None” means “not one” — it’s not specific about which people.
→ That’s an
indefinite pronoun.
---
Sentence 8:
*His mom said to go to the store and buy bread.*
→ “His” shows whose mom it is — it’s possessive.
→ That’s a
possessive pronoun.
---
Sentence 9:
*Robert will tell the man who works at the store.*
→ “who” connects “man” to “works at the store” — it describes the man.
→ That’s a
relative pronoun.
---
Sentence 10:
*The jewelry is mine.*
→ “mine” means “my jewelry” — it shows ownership.
→ That’s a
possessive pronoun.
