Do They Agree?A Subject-Verb

Agreement Game

Directions: Take turns drawing a card. Read the two sentences. In which sentence do the subject and verb agree? After you give your answer, another player should check the answer key. If you are correct, roll the die to move forward. The first one to END, wins! If you run out of cards before reaching END, take turns rolling the die to see who gets there first.

A singular subject takes a singular verb.

My cat likes tuna fish.

A plural subject takes a plural verb.

Our dogs run in the park.

A subject comes before a phrase beginning with of.

The bouquet of roses is on the desk.

Two singular subjects, connected by or, either/or, or neither/nor require a singular verb.

Either my mom or my dad is coming to my game tonight.

When one subject is singular and one is plural in an or, either/or, or neither/nor sentence, the verb agrees with the noun or pronoun closest to it.

Neither my dad nor my brothers like to watch baseball.

In most cases, use a plural verb after two or more subjects connected with and.

The meat, potatoes, and vegetables are on the table.

Ignore both phrases that follow the subject and words in parentheses when determining whether to use a singular or plural verb.

My principal, along with all the teachers, wishes that tomorrow would be a snow day.The turkey (and all the side dishes) is ready for Thanksgiving dinner.

Use a singular verb with distances, periods of time, etc. when considered as a unit.

Thirty-five hours is a long time to be in labor.Five dollars a week is what I get for allowance.

If a word indicates portions (a lot, a majority, some, etc.) use the noun after the word of to determine whether you need a singular or plural verb.

Some of the pie is missing.Some of the pies are missing.

A collective noun may be considered singular or plural, depending on the context. Consider whether the noun is being used to represent a group or the individuals within that group.

The army is going to attack tomorrow.The army are fighting among themselves.
