What does a subject pronoun do?
It acts as the sentence’s subject. In simple action sentences, it often tells who does the action: She helps. Subjects also appear in descriptions: She is happy.
What does an object pronoun do?
It can be the object of a verb: I help her. Object forms also follow prepositions such as to with and for: Come with us. This card is for him.
Can the spelling stay the same?
Yes. You and it have the same spelling in subject and object positions. Their role comes from the sentence: You smile. I see you. It rolls. I catch it.
Which form should I use with and?
Use I in a subject group: Tara and I read. Use me in an object group: The teacher helps Tara and me. Try the shorter sentence to check the form: I read. The teacher helps me.
Make the reference clear
Introduce the person or thing before replacing the name. The characters in the activities have stated pronouns so children can practise the form without guessing from appearance.

💡 Teaching Tips for Parents and Teachers
Start with a clear action
Use two toy characters. Let one help the other. Say the names first and then replace them with suitable subject and object pronouns.
Introduce pronoun partners together
Practise I/me he/him she/her we/us and they/them. Then point out that you and it keep the same spelling.
Change the speaker
Let each toy say I can help you. Swap roles and ask who I and you refer to now.
Read the whole sentence
A pronoun’s role depends on its use. Avoid teaching that any word after a verb must be an object or that all subjects perform physical actions.
Review creative work together
Check that each pronoun refers clearly to someone or something and that its form fits its sentence role. Then check capitals and ending marks.
