A pronouns interactive worksheet should explain subject and object choices separately. It should also identify a sentence whose reference cannot be resolved instead of guessing from a name.
Original role-and-reference notes
Fictional practice identities: the supplied notes explicitly give Nora she/her and Eli he/him. The narrator uses I/me in this task. These are teaching inputs, not pronouns inferred from the names.
| Original sentence | Replacement key | Roles preserved |
|---|---|---|
| Nora helps Eli. | She helps him. | Nora acts; Eli receives the help. |
| Eli thanks Nora. | He thanks her. | Eli acts; Nora receives the thanks. |
| Nora and Eli wave to the narrator. | They wave to me. | The pair acts; the narrator is the object of to. |
Subject pronouns fill the subject position; object pronouns are used in these object positions, including after to. The primary worksheet description distinguishes these roles. The notes and sentences here are original and do not reproduce its downloaded worksheet or answer key.
Check the role before the word form
For the first sentence, ask “Who helps?” before asking for She. Then ask “Who receives the help?” before asking for him. If the learner selects her for the subject slot, explain that the supplied Nora reference is correct but the chosen form is not the subject form needed there.
For “They wave to ___,” the target is me, not I. Feedback should identify the preposition to and the narrator's object role. Keep They tied to the pair rather than introducing another group not present in the source sentence.
This exercise does not ask for ownership forms such as mine or hers. Those would answer a different question. Keep the actor/recipient transformation in focus rather than offering every pronoun category in one undifferentiated list.
Keep an ambiguous reference unresolved
Use a separate original item: “Nora thanked Mei after she arrived.” No supplied fact states whether she refers to Nora or Mei. Ask “What needs clarification?” and accept identification of that ambiguity.
Do not choose the nearest name as an automatic answer or infer Mei's pronouns. Ask the teacher to supply the intended referent or rewrite with the name: “Nora thanked Mei after Nora arrived” or “Nora thanked Mei after Mei arrived,” according to the clarified meaning.
The clarification changes what the reader knows; it is not a reason to grade the original ambiguity as a learner error. Keep that item apart from the three fully specified transformation keys.
Make feedback name the person and role
In local practice, each choice should receive feedback tied to the original sentence and supplied reference notes. Show the actor/recipient explanation beside the target. A new sentence clears the prior answer; retry allows a different choice, and reset removes selections and feedback.
Use labeled keyboard choices and a complete text passage. Empty answers remain unanswered. An ambiguity item needs a clarification state, not a fabricated resolved key or an automatic identity diagnosis.
Copy a role-preserving worksheet brief
Create one complete, self-contained US-English HTML companion for “Pronoun Roles · Keep the People in Place”. Return the full HTML document, with inline CSS and any JavaScript needed for the local interactions. Use the original scenario, named records, numbers and expected cases below.
Design the page for this task: use clearly labeled input or source records, a readable result or worked example, and an adjacent explanation of the evidence. Use a restrained visual hierarchy, left-aligned text, readable tables or stacked records, and a responsive layout at 720px and 360px. Provide meaningful labeled controls for 1 · Nora helps; 2 · Eli thanks; 3 · Pair waves; 4 · Unresolved reference; Check both roles; She must refer to Nora; She must refer to Mei; Ask which person arrived; Retry current item; Reset worksheet. Use keyboard-accessible native controls and visible focus. Keep the complete content readable without an external dependency.
The following brief supplies the substantive content and constraints. Native-format requests describe the material to represent or copy manually; this HTML must not pretend to create DOCX, XLSX, PDF, PPTX, H5P or another native file, run Python/Flask/Django/Snowflake/Power BI, connect a live service, send messages, or perform an authorized real-world action. Where the task requires a native source, actual observation or separate approval, retain that requirement and leave unsupplied evidence blank.
Prepare original subject/object pronoun practice in US English.
Learner context: [enter or TO CONFIRM]
Fictional or approved referents and explicitly supplied pronoun pairs: [paste]
Original sentences with actor/recipient roles: [paste]
Narrator/reference convention: [enter]
Ambiguous-reference items and intended clarification, if supplied: [paste]
Replace noun phrases without changing who acts or receives the action. Bind
subject/object forms to their roles and supplied referents. Explain object
form after a preposition where relevant. Do not infer pronouns from names,
invent identities, or substitute ownership forms for this task. Unresolved
antecedents stay unresolved; ask for clarification rather than guessing.
Return original items, reviewed keys and role/reference feedback. If requested,
provide HTML keyboard choices/check/retry/reset. Keep each key tied to its
source sentence; context change clears stale feedback. Empty is unanswered. No open-ended machine grading, response collection or saved student scores.
COMPLETE AUTHORED SCENARIO AND EXPECTED CASES
The following is the supplied reading/teaching/calculation record to represent in the companion. Preserve its particular content, examples, source references and unknowns. Wording about a future native implementation refers to that native task, not permission to omit this HTML companion.
# Pronouns Interactive Worksheet: Preserve Who Acts and Who Receives the Action
“Nora helps Eli” becomes “She helps him” only when the exercise supplies those pronoun references and preserves each person's role. Give learners the actor, recipient, and allowed pronouns before asking them to replace names.
A pronouns interactive worksheet should explain **subject** and **object** choices separately. It should also identify a sentence whose reference cannot be resolved instead of guessing from a name.
## Original role-and-reference notes
**Fictional practice identities:** the supplied notes explicitly give Nora **she/her** and Eli **he/him**. The narrator uses **I/me** in this task. These are teaching inputs, not pronouns inferred from the names.
| Original sentence | Replacement key | Roles preserved |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Nora helps Eli. | She helps him. | Nora acts; Eli receives the help. |
| Eli thanks Nora. | He thanks her. | Eli acts; Nora receives the thanks. |
| Nora and Eli wave to the narrator. | They wave to me. | The pair acts; the narrator is the object of to. |
Subject pronouns fill the subject position; object pronouns are used in these object positions, including after **to**. The [primary worksheet description](https://www.education.com/worksheet/article/identify-subject-and-object-pronouns/) distinguishes these roles.

## Copy a role-preserving worksheet brief
Implement the local companion rather than returning a text-only plan. Preserve every numerical fixture and the distinction between illustrative expectations and actual evidence. Any native-runtime or classroom tests mentioned above remain tests to perform in the proper environment; do not mark them passed. Keep edits and practice responses in this open page only, without claiming persistent storage. Provide invalid/missing-input feedback and reset behavior that agree with this specific brief. Do not claim accessibility certification, learning gains, real approvals or test results that were not observed.
Check each replacement with a teacher by naming the original actor and recipient again. Leave the Nora/Mei item unresolved until its meaning is clarified so learners practice maintaining reference, not guessing which person a sentence intended.
