Reflective Pronouns Worksheet for Grade 5

Section 1: Theory and Rules with Example Sentences

Suggested Time: 10 minutes

What Are Reflexive Pronouns?
Reflexive pronouns are pronouns that end in “-self” or “-selves” and are used when the subject and the object of a sentence are the same person or thing. They are used to reflect the action back onto the subject.

Reflexive Pronouns:

  • Singular: myself, yourself, himself, herself, itself
  • Plural: ourselves, yourselves, themselves

When Do We Use Reflexive Pronouns?

  1. When the subject and object are the same:
    • Example: "I taught myself to play the piano."
    • Explanation: The subject "I" is the same person who is the object "myself."
  2. For emphasis (to emphasize that the subject did the action alone):
    • Example: "She cooked the entire meal herself."
    • Explanation: This emphasizes that "she" did the cooking without help.

Common Errors:

  • Incorrect: "Please give it to myself."
  • Correct: "Please give it to me."
  • Incorrect: "Himself went to the store."
  • Correct: "He went to the store by himself."
