Message from Mrs. Smith 2.28

Remember the trick when choosing a pronoun that is paired with another person/item: Take the other person or item away and decide which pronoun works. It has to work alone in order to be the correct answer. Lat night, many of you missed the last question...My grandfather gave my brother and ME a fishing pole. You wouldn't say, "My grandfather gave I a fishing pole," so you wouldn't say, "my brother and I." IT HAS TO WORK ALONE CORRECTLY IN ORDER TO WORK WITH ANOTHER PERSON OR ITEM. THIS IS AN IMPORTANT TRICK. USE IT EVERY SINGLE TIME YOU CHOOSE. Do the form below and review pronouns carefully tonight.
