Read the full guide

Five sets by kind of pronoun

Pointing, Asking and Relative Pronouns has These, Whom and Whichever. Indefinite Pronouns has Everyone, Neither and Several. Label words such as Reflexive sit in the set they name.

Why My and Their are here

My, Your, Its, Our, Their and Whose stand before a noun, and the American Heritage Dictionary labels them adjectives. They are in the possessive set because the Common Core lists my, their and whose with the pronouns. I has one letter, too short for a crossword answer, so it stays in the clues.

  • Have pupils circle the words in brackets before they write, as a first lesson on antecedents.
