When I discuss pronouns I sometimes use sentences without them, repeating things that should be substituted with pronouns. For example:
Jenny took Jenny īs dog for a walk. Mum brushed mum īs teeth before mum went to work.
Ted saw Ted in the mirror. Sally was hungry, so she made Sally a sandwich. etc.
The students soon agree these sentences sound a bit silly the way they are and that we can probably do something to avoid repeating the person.
Good luck!

They are young , so children often know without " understanding" a grammar point. This is a good thing. If they give the right answer, they do understand. |
