Reflexive Possessive Pronouns Worksheets for Grade 2
Pronouns are defined as the words that are used in place of nouns. Such words replace nouns in sentences. When we write, we use several nouns such as names of people in sentences. It is not very efficient to keep repeating the name each time we need to refer to that person.
Moreover, doing so makes it repetitive, inefficient and takes away from the beauty of the language. Pronouns are used to counter such cases. Depending upon the noun being replaced and its function, pronouns replace the nouns in the sentence. There are a few different types of pronouns. It can be personal, possessive, definite, indefinite, reflexive, and so on. The worksheet brings exercises for young kids to learn about reflexive pronouns.
Reflexive pronouns are pronouns that refer back to a noun in a sentence. These add information about the noun it refers to. Reflexive pronouns are used when subjects and objects are in the same sentences. Given in the first worksheet is a list of the personal and reflexive pronouns.
