Subject Pronouns – Interactive Grammar Practice
Subject pronouns are essential for clear and simple English sentences. In this interactive grammar page, students practise subject pronouns (I, you, he, she, it, we, they) through multiple-choice questions, fill-in-the-blanks, flashcards, word scrambles, matching and sentence-building tasks that are perfect for A1–A2 learners in the Preparatory Year Program and other beginner English courses.
Subject pronouns are small words like I, you, he, she, it, we, and they that replace names and make sentences easier to say and remember. On this page, students review subject pronouns in clear, simple sentences connected to school, family and everyday campus life. They choose the correct subject pronouns, complete sentences, build questions and practise using them with the verb “be” in real contexts.
In fill-in-the-blank question 7, the sentence is linked to multiple-choice question 7. Therefore, the correct answer is ‘she’.

Grammar Notes: Subject Pronouns
Subject pronouns replace the name of a person, place or thing and show who or what does the action in a sentence. We use them all the time in speaking and writing, so it is important to choose the correct pronoun.
1. The basic subject pronouns
In English there are seven main subject pronouns: I, you, he, she, it, we, they.
- I – the speaker (one person).
- you – the person or people you talk to.
- he / she – one person (male / female).
- it – things, ideas, animals, time, weather, etc.
- we – the speaker + other people.
- they – people or things we talk about.
Example: We have class at eight o’clock. They are in the next room.
2. Singular and plural pronouns
Some subject pronouns are singular (one person or thing) and some are plural (more than one).
- Singular: I, you, he, she, it
- Plural: we, you, they
Example: He is my lab partner. They are in a different group.
3. Replacing nouns with pronouns
We can replace a name or a noun phrase with a subject pronoun to avoid repetition.
- Ali is absent today. → He is absent today.
- My friends and I study together. → We study together.
- The library is quiet. → It is quiet.
Example: Fatimah and Nora are here. They are early.
4. Subject pronouns with the verb “be”
Subject pronouns are usually followed by a verb. At beginner level, they often come with the verb “be” (am, is, are).
- I am in level one.
- You are my classmate.
- He / She is the new teacher.
- It is a long day.
- We / They are ready for the quiz.
Example: We are in the English lab, and they are in the math lab.
