Who Owns What?: Possessive Pronouns Made Easy for Grade 3

This Grade 3 English grammar worksheet focuses on Possessive Pronouns (mine, yours, theirs) and helps students clearly understand ownership in everyday language. Through relatable, age-appropriate situations, learners practise identifying who something belongs to using the correct possessive pronoun.

The worksheet includes a balanced mix of activities such as True and False statements, Multiple Choice Questions, Fill in the Blanks, Underline and Rewrite exercises, and a short Paragraph Writing task. Each activity gradually builds understanding — from simple sentence recognition to applying possessive pronouns in longer contexts.

Students learn how possessive pronouns replace repeated nouns, improve sentence clarity, and make communication smoother. Real-life classroom and home examples make the grammar concept easy to grasp and fun to practise.
