Today in class, we learned about subject pronouns!
Singular pronouns: I, you, he, she, it
Plural pronouns: we, you, they
Here are some examples of subject pronouns. They are words that replace names or things, like thing would be it, Peter would be he, Mrs. Yollis would be she. I am going to make up a step up to writing about subject pronouns.
Subject Pronouns are a great way to use different words instead of Peter or Mrs. Yollis. First, instead of using Peter, you could use he. He has a new blog post on his blog. He admires blogging. He thinks Mrs. Yollis' blog is grand! He thinks blogging is a wonderful way to connect with others, and learn around the world! Secondly, other than using Mrs. Yollis, you can use she. She has a blog that is a great place to find wonderful facts. She publishes posts that are full of inspirational blogging ideas. Finally, instead of using thing, you could use it. When referring to places or things you can use the word it. It is an incredible place to have a grand vacation, and it is called Hawaii. It has beautiful fish like the Humuhumunukunukuapua' a (hu • mu • hu • mu• nu •ku • nu •ku • a • pu • a • 'a). If you want some facts about this amazing fish, you can go to the following post on Mrs. Yollis' blog, Mrs. Yollis' Humuhumunukunukuapua'a. The Humuhumunukunukuapua'a is Hawaii's state fish, and it is a spectacular tropical fish. At the end of the day, subject pronouns are pretty important.
What did you think of my step-up-to-writing?
Can you research some facts about the Humuhumunukunukuapua'a?

Dear Peter,
ReplyDeleteThat was a very clever and interesting post that you made up. Your blog is a helpful learning tool, unlike other utilities on the Internet that may be incorrect. It is fascinating that there are two ways to write these sentences, and often there is only one specific way to write each word in our language.
To answer your question,
1. She is a fabulous blogger!
2. You want to get a new post in by the weekend.
3. She is a grand commenter.
4. You are writing a paragraph about her blog.
5. You love to blog!
