Subject and Verb Agreement


A verb should agree in number with its subject.
Singular subjects take singular verbs.
Example: The girl sings well.
Plural subjects take plural verbs.

Example: The girls sing well.

Directions: Underline the verb in the parentheses that agrees with its subject.
1. Squirrels ( love, loves ) to hide nuts and acorns in safe places.
2. They ( build, builds ) a nest out of leaves and ( store, stores ) food in it.
3. Most squirrels ( build, builds ) their nests in trees where branches (
meet, meets ).
4. Imagine my surprise when there ( was, were ) a squirrel in my mailbox.
5. The squirrel ( was, were ) building a nest in my mailbox.
6. The poor little squirrel ( was, were ) just as surprised as my mom and I
(was, were ).
7. Bills ( is, are ) bad enough to receive in the mail, but a squirrel ( is, are )
a shock.
8. My dad ( is, are ) putting up a second mailbox, so the squirrel can have
this one.
9. My mom and I ( is, are ) both careful now when we ( check, checks ) the
