This That These and Those

Introduce the skill with a brief whole-class activity, such as calling out examples and asking students to give a thumbs up when they hear using pronouns in a sentence. Then let students work through it independently, using a partner or small group only if they want to talk through their thinking, referring to a class anchor chart if one is available. When reviewing answers, ask students to explain why an answer is correct rather than just confirming it. These using pronouns worksheets work well as a focused practice activity, a homework assignment, or a warm-up at the start of a language arts lesson.

Use a near and far chart to choose this, that, these or those in eight sentences, then write two. This, that, these and those point to nouns. They tell if a thing is near or far, and if there is one or many. The directions on the page read: Read the chart. Then, circle the correct word in each sentence. Then, write one sentence with these and one sentence with that. An answer key is included.

Yes, both. We made it for 3rd Grade pronouns, and the page works the same whether it lands on a kitchen table or a center rotation. At home, most families go through it together and talk the answers out loud, and that talking is where most of the learning happens with using pronouns. In class it runs well as independent work while you pull a small group. Print one copy or thirty, whichever the day needs.

Third graders work with personal subject pronouns (I, he, she, they), object pronouns (me, him, her, them), and possessive pronouns (my, his, her, their) in context-based exercises.

Correctly using pronouns makes writing flow naturally - students learn to substitute nouns strategically so sentences avoid repetition while maintaining clarity about who or what is being discussed.

Common mistakes include using the wrong case (e.g., 'Me and my friend went' instead of 'My friend and I went') and unclear pronoun references, both of which worksheets target with focused exercises.

5 printable worksheets, all free to preview. Downloads are included with a ClassWeekly free trial, and every page prints on standard 8.5 x 11 paper.

These are written for 3rd Grade students, roughly ages 8-9. Many teachers also use them a grade up for review or a grade down as an extension, so use the preview to judge the fit for a particular child.

Yes. Each one shows the Common Core code it covers on its own page, so you can check the alignment yourself rather than taking our word for it.
