Pronoun People Go Fish

Hi everyone! Today's freebie is a pronoun activity. It targets pronouns he and she.

Instructions:
1. Print two copies of the activity (3 if 3 students are playing, etc.).
2. Laminate for durability.
3. Select the specific cards you would like your students to use (he vs. she).
4. Have each student take 3-4 cards to begin.
5. Play the game similar to Go Fish. It should look like this:

  • Student 1 = Do you have "he is riding"?
  • Student 2 = No. Go Fish. Do you have "she is skating"?
  • Student 1 = Yes (gives the cards to student 2).
    • At this time both students would select a new card from the pile.
    • Game continues in this fashion until all of the cards are gone.
I hope that makes sense!

Take a look at the preview below:


Now for the young ones, like preschool age, you may have to help them read the cards. I hope the pictures are helpful enough for the student to grasp the main idea. Even if it's not exact, that's okay. The main point is to use the pronoun correctly. You could also include a sentence strip at the bottom to depict he and she more clearly if needed.

Enjoy!

  9. Thanks for this very useful activity! I absolutely appreciate that you chose images that actually have something to do with the target! Many times I see great activities with very cute images/clipart, but they have nothing to do with the target at hand. For example, imagine your pronoun activity but the clipart used is of different colored fish. Thanks again!

  10. Used this with a few different students over the past week. I made it very structured- I have -- Do you have ---, etc. and it was very insightful as well as fun. So simple and yet beneficial for all of us! Thank you!
