Subject Pronouns I, He, She, We, They — Grade 4

Grade 4 students identify, correct, and write sentences to practice using I, he, she, we, and they correctly as the subject doing the action.

When a pronoun takes the place of a noun and does the action in a sentence, it must be a subject pronoun. For Grade 4 students, knowing which pronouns belong in the subject position — I, he, she, we, and they — is essential for clear, correct writing. Confusing subject and object pronouns is one of the most common errors at this age, and correcting it early builds a strong foundation for more complex grammar work ahead. This worksheet moves students from recognition to application: they begin by spotting subject pronouns in sentences, then complete sentences with the right choice, correct errors, and finally write a sentence of their own. Work through the sections in order for the best result.

Subject Pronouns I, He, She, We, They — Grade 4

Read each section carefully, then follow the directions for each part. All four sections practice using subject pronouns correctly in sentences.

Remember

  • A subject pronoun is the pronoun that does the action in a sentence. I, he, she, we, and they are subject pronouns.
  • The word me is not a subject pronoun. When you are doing the action, always write I instead. Example: I finished first.
  • When other people do the action, use he, she, we, or they. Never use him, her, us, or them as the subject. Example: They read the report.

Notes for the grown-up

  • Students most often write 'me and a friend went...' instead of 'a friend and I went...' — watch for this pattern in Section C.
  • When a student hesitates, ask them to remove the other name and test the pronoun alone: does 'me went' or 'I went' sound right?
  • A student is ready to move on when they can state the rule in their own words and not just choose the answer by ear.
