A relative pronoun is a pronoun that is used to refer to nouns that have been mentioned previously. The nouns can be people, places, things, animals, or ideas. Relative pronouns can be used to join two sentences. The most common relative pronouns that are taught to children in the very beginning are as follows: Who Whose Whom Which  That In some situations, words like “ where ”, “ when ”, and “ why ” are also used as relative pronouns. The following chart is a good way of understanding how to use relative pronouns in sentences. Relative Pronouns Chart: Using some relative pronouns might be confusing in the beginning; they require some special attention. For example, it takes time for children to understand where to use " who"  and where to use " whom" . Who vs Whom: “Who” is a subjective pronoun.  “Whom” is an objective pronoun. You can only use “who” as the subject of a sentence; the subject is the doer of the action. “Whom” is the object of a sentence. The objec...

Hello friends, Learn and practice verbs and tenses in this beautiful e-book called "My First Book of Verbs and Tenses".  Before downloading the high-quality PDF for the verbs and tenses worksheets for the kids' booklet, spend a few minutes with me to go over verbs and their role in the English language. When children start learning the English language, they are taught the correct usage of verbs in the very beginning. Verbs are action words . They tell us what action is taking place. For example, I swim. Here the action word or verb is  swim . What is so complicated about verbs? There is nothing complicated as such but some rules have to be followed when using verbs; the form of verbs changes depending on when the action is taking place. Look at the following two sentences:  1. I swim.    2. I swam yesterday.  These two sentences don't mean the same thing as they use different tenses. The first sentence means that I do the action (swimming) often. This sen...

Hello friends, Let's talk about Homophones. A homophone is a word that sounds the same as another word but has a different meaning. It may have the same or a different spelling. Children must start learning about the concept of homophones when they start creative writing as they may end up using the wrong spelling of the word while writing. To help the children on their creative writing journey, I have compiled a list of 85+ homophones with different spellings that sound the same. The meanings have been clarified using pictures and sentences. I hope you find them useful. As a bonus, I have also made eight homophone worksheets to test children's learning.

🌷 When children start learning English, the correct usage of tenses is very important. And when children start learning about tenses, it is essential that they use the correct form of the verb. Normally, a verb like "𝗷𝘂𝗺𝗽" will change, in accordance with the tense used, in the following way: 🍁 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗧𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗲: I 𝗷𝘂𝗺𝗽 very high. 🍁 𝗣𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗧𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗲: I 𝗷𝘂𝗺𝗽𝗲𝗱 very high. 🍁 𝗣𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝗣𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗧𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗲: I ℎ𝑎𝑑 𝗷𝘂𝗺𝗽𝗲𝗱 very high. U nfortunately, some verbs, called 𝗜𝗥𝗥𝗘𝗚𝗨𝗟𝗔𝗥 𝗩𝗘𝗥𝗕𝗦, don't change so simply by adding "ed" to them. 𝗙𝗼𝗿 𝗲𝘅𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲: I 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲 very tasty food. I 𝗺𝗮𝗱𝗲 very tasty food. I ℎ𝑎𝑑 𝗺𝗮𝗱𝗲 very tasty food last night. OR I 𝗿𝘂𝗻 to school every day. I 𝗿𝗮𝗻 to school. I ℎ𝑎𝑑 𝗿𝘂𝗻 to school. OR I 𝘀𝘄𝗶𝗺 in the lake. I 𝘀𝘄𝗮𝗺 in the lake. I ℎ𝑎𝑑 𝘀𝘄𝘂𝗺 in the lake. OR the very unique verbs that don't change at all 😊 I 𝗰𝘂𝘁 an apple every day. I 𝗰𝘂𝘁 an appl...
