Use this pronouns game as a fun and collaborative way of learning about personal pronouns.
A Fun Pronouns Game for Your Grammar Lessons
It can sometimes be hard to make seemingly dry grammar concepts fun for our students to learn about. That’s when games of all kinds become the teacher’s best friend!
This dice game has been created by the Teach Starter team to help students practise using personal pronouns in a collaborative and engaging way. The resource includes four different game boards, each with sentences that contain underlined words. Players roll a dice, match the number rolled to a corresponding personal pronoun, then cover the sentence with the correct pronoun. It’s a great way to reinforce grammar skills while making learning interactive.
To play, follow these simple steps:
- Students choose one of the four game boards.
- Players take turns rolling a dice. They say the pronoun that matches the number rolled (these can be found along the top of the game board for easy reference).
- Players find a sentence on their game board that contains an underlined word (or words) that matches their rolled pronoun. For example, the name ‘Kimberly’ would match the pronoun ‘she’.
- Players cover the underlined word or words with a counter, then write them next to the corresponding pronoun on the recording sheet.
- The game continues until all sentences on the board are covered. The first player to cover all their sentences wins!
The resource downloads as a full-colour PDF or editable Google Slides file. Inside, you will find:
- Instruction page
- 4 x game boards
- Recording sheet
Differentiate This Pronouns Game
Looking to support all learners as they engage with this pronouns game? Here are some support and extension ideas from our teacher team:
- Supporting Students – Less confident students may benefit from playing the game at a slower pace. If possible, choose students to join a small group game that can be overseen by a supportive adult mentor.
- Extending Students – More confident students may enjoy the challenge of adding a timed element to the game. Have them use a timer to see how long it takes them to correctly cover all of the sentences.
