Understanding and using pronouns: ‘I’, ‘you’ and ‘we’

 

Why is this important?
Pronouns are words that replace the name of a person (e.g. instead of the
speaker saying ‘Mummy would like a cup of tea’, Mummy refers to herself as
‘I’). When asking someone else a question, ‘you’ is used instead of the name
of the person (e.g. ‘Did you see the car?’ instead of ‘Did Sammy see the car?’).
This is another step in the development of grammar.

What to do
• Set up a pretend tea party.
• Gather together cups, plates, plastic cutlery, foods, pretend kettle and teapot, etc.
• Play modelling pronouns, e.g.

‘I want some tea.’
‘Sunil, do you want some tea?’
• Set up situations where you can model ‘I’ and ‘you’ and then ask a question, e.g.

Adult: ‘I put my coat on, what are you doing Sunil?’
Child: ‘I put coat on.’

FAITH
  • Through our Christian school and ethos, we all aim to believe in ourselves, each other, our teachers, leaders and parents. With reflection and prayer, we trust in God that our prayers will be heard. We know that every child is a child of Jesus, treating everyone with respect and dignity that they deserve.

    Keep on asking, and you will receive what you ask for. Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you.
    Matthew 7:7
