Personal pronouns are used to represent people. They can show first person (the speaker), second
person (the person being spoken to), or third person (the person being spoken about).
If the pronoun is the subject of the sentence, we say it is a subject pronoun (sometimes called a
nominative pronoun). If the pronoun is the object of the sentence, we say it is an object pronoun.

Circle the pronoun in each sentence. On the line in front of each sentence, write “S” if the pronoun is a
subject pronoun or “O” if the pronoun is an object pronoun. Example:

SUBJECT PRONOUN (S) OBJECT PRONOUN (O)
