Instructional Ideas

• Encourage class members to keep the first page of the packet in a language arts notebook or binder as a reference guide
• Project the activities onto the board to solve as daily warmup assignments

Classroom Considerations

• The first activity requires use of the first reference page as a word bank; other activities include their own word banks
• Some parts of the worksheet are in color, but should print in black and white without problems
• Contains dialect that would be most familiar in British classrooms
• Does not include an answer key
• Some of the sentences in the last two activities would be more understandable if rewritten to contain appositive phrases

Pros

• Distinguishes between possessive determiners and possessive pronouns
• Provides several opportunities to practice demonstrative pronouns, which are often confusing for English learners

Cons

• None
