Make Subjects and Verbs Work Together: Advanced Agreement for Class 6

This Grade 6 worksheet builds on core subject–verb agreement skills by covering tricky grammar rules—like collective nouns, phrases with “each,” “either/neither,” and compound subjects. With sentence correction, subject identification, sentence building, and rewriting tasks, students master advanced rules for clearer writing.

Why Subject–Verb Agreement Matters in Grammar?

Subject–verb agreement ensures every sentence reads clearly and correctly. For Grade 6 students, this advanced topic is important because:

1. It teaches agreement rules beyond basic singular/plural forms.

2. It prepares learners for tricky subject types like collective and indefinite nouns.

3. It supports editing skills and formal writing accuracy.

4. It lays the groundwork for advanced grammar concepts in middle school.
