A simple way to teach it
Before the lesson
Print the two learner pages and retain the key. Review names, people and possessions. Model She is here versus Her bag is here, and distinguish its from it's.
- Read A bag in the classroom and notice the bold forms. Use the table to complete Part A, checking what follows the gap.
- Complete New neighbours with each supplied word once, then do the Part C replacements. Ask learners to identify the person or group each pronoun refers to.
- Write three personal or invented sentences and use the printed speaking prompts. Report only details the partner is comfortable sharing.
Support and extension
For support, display paired forms such as we / our and he / his. For an extension, replace names in a short description with pronouns. Check fixed practice against page 3; personal answers vary. Focus on pronoun-plus-verb versus possessive-adjective-plus-noun, not copying the model family.
Suggested approach. Adjust the pace and number of questions to suit your class.
