Plural Subject Verb Agreement Worksheet Two of Seven

Worksheet (2 of 7) on Subject Verb Agreement

Definition	The subject of every sentence is either singular or plural and that determines the ending of the verb. Plural nouns usually have an "s" and take plural verbs that usually do not end with an "s".
Example	Boys run. You can't have two "s" endings at the same time. You cannot have an "s" on the subject and an "s" on the verb. Many singular verbs are spelt with a "s" on the end. Many plural verbs do not have a "s" on the end.
Directions	Circle the verb in each sentence. Read the sentences aloud to hear the sentence that makes the most sense. The first one has been done for you.
