Free printable compound subjects and predicates worksheets for 4th grade. Students practice identifying and writing sentences with compound subjects (two or more subjects sharing a predicate) and compound predicates (two or more predicates sharing a subject), learning to use conjunctions to combine sentence elements. These structures reduce repetition and add sophistication to 4th grade writing. Part of our sentences worksheets collection.

What You'll Learn

  • Identify compound subjects joined by coordinating conjunctions
  • Identify compound predicates that share one subject in a sentence
  • Write sentences using compound subjects and predicates correctly

FAQ

What is a compound subject and how is it formed?

A compound subject includes two or more subjects joined by a conjunction ('Sarah and Jake played outside') — both subjects share the same predicate, and the conjunction joins them.

How do compound predicates improve writing efficiency?

Instead of writing 'She read the book. She wrote a summary,' students write 'She read the book and wrote a summary' — a compound predicate eliminates redundancy and creates smoother, more mature prose.

What conjunction rules apply when forming compound subjects and predicates?

Students use 'and' to combine parallel elements and 'or' when expressing alternatives — and with compound subjects joined by 'or' or 'nor,' verb agreement depends on the subject closest to the verb.
