Subject Pronouns: Model Text and Worksheet

(TESOL Materials--Subject Pronouns)

* Worksheet: docs, pub

[Notes: This model text was created using AI, specifically Gemini Storybook.  The prompt was: "Create a storybook to introduce subject pronouns to ESL students. Remember to use simple English, and be sure to include all the subject pronouns: I, you, he, she, it, we, you, they"  The chat can be viewed here.   In my classes, I read the story with my students once for general understanding, then I handed them the worksheet, and asked them to identify the referent for each underlined word.  Then we went through it together in feedback.]

“Hello! My name is Leo. I am going on a picnic.”

Leo sees his friend Mia. “Hello, Mia! Are you ready?” he asks.

Mia sees her dog, Pip. “He is ready, too!” she says. Pip wags his tail.


Leo sees his friend, Mia. “She is bringing the blanket,” he says.

The picnic basket is full of food. “It is heavy!” says Leo.

Leo and Mia walk together. “We are going to the park,” says Leo.


They see more friends at the park. “Hello, everyone! Are you ready for fun?” asks Mia.


The friends are playing a game. “They are playing with a ball,” says Leo.


Everyone sits down to eat. “We are so happy to be here!” says Mia.


The picnic is a lot of fun. They eat, they play, and they laugh. It is a perfect day.
