To solve this worksheet, we need to decide whether to use
I or
me in each blank.
Here is the simple rule:
- Use
I when you are doing the action (the subject). A trick is to remove the other person's name and see if "I" sounds right. (Example: "Kim and I walked" -> "I walked." This sounds correct.)
- Use
me when the action is happening to you (the object). A trick is to remove the other person's name and see if "me" sounds right. (Example: "Help me clean" -> "Help me." This sounds correct. "Help I" sounds wrong.)
Let's go through each sentence:
