Subject Predicate Practice Activities
Class 3 printable grammar worksheets for identifying subjects and predicates and building complete, meaningful sentences.
Practice that builds confidence
Understanding the two sentence parts
These Class 3 Subject Predicate practice activities help children understand that every complete sentence has two parts: who or what the sentence is about, and what is said about it. Learners practise spotting the subject and predicate in clear, age-appropriate sentences.
The printable worksheets include activities such as underlining the subject, circling the predicate, matching sentence parts, completing unfinished sentences, and rewriting sentences correctly. They support grammar and writing lessons within the Sentences unit.
A subject names the person, animal, place, or thing the sentence is about. The predicate tells what the subject does, has, is, or feels. In a sentence such as “The little bird sings,” “The little bird” is the subject and “sings” is the predicate. These worksheets help Class 3 children move from simply reading a sentence to noticing how its parts work together.
How the practice progresses
Children begin with short, direct sentences where the subject comes first. They then work with longer subjects, such as “My best friend” or “The children in the park,” and predicates that include more detail. Matching tasks help them see that a subject and predicate must make sense together. Completion exercises encourage children to create full sentences rather than fragments.
A simple parent routine
At home, ask your child to read one sentence aloud and say, “Who or what is this sentence about?” That answer is usually the subject. Then ask, “What is being said about it?” That answer is the predicate. After finishing a worksheet, invite your child to write two original sentences about family members, pets, school, or favourite games and divide each sentence with a slash.
Classroom uses for teachers
Teachers can use these printables during grammar instruction, small-group reinforcement, morning work, or sentence-writing practice. They also work well as quick checks after teaching complete sentences. For pair work, one child can read the subject and the other can choose or write a suitable predicate, encouraging oral language and sentence sense.
Common errors to watch for
Many children underline only one word as the subject even when the complete subject has more words, such as “The tall boy.” Some confuse the action word alone with the whole predicate, missing words that complete the idea. Others treat a phrase like “in the garden” as a full sentence. Encourage children to check whether the sentence tells both who or what and what about it.

Why iBloom worksheets help
The activities give repeated, focused practice without overloading children with too many grammar terms at once. A useful child-friendly strategy is: “Find the naming part, then find the telling part.” This keeps the work practical and helps children build stronger sentences in their own writing.
Helpful answers
Frequently asked questions
What do Class 3 children learn in subject and predicate worksheets?
They learn to divide a complete sentence into the subject, which tells who or what the sentence is about, and the predicate, which tells something about the subject.
How can I explain subject and predicate simply at home?
Ask two questions: “Who or what is the sentence about?” for the subject, and “What is said about it?” for the predicate. This works well for most simple Class 3 sentences.
Do these worksheets include complete sentence practice?
Yes. Children identify parts of sentences, match subjects with predicates, and complete sentence parts so that the final sentence makes sense.
What mistakes should my child avoid while finding the predicate?
Children often mark only the verb instead of the full predicate. For example, in “The dog runs fast,” the predicate is “runs fast,” not just “runs.”
Can teachers use these worksheets for revision?
Yes. They are suitable for grammar revision, small-group practice, independent classwork, or a quick check after teaching sentence parts.
