During shared writing, rewrite the same sentence several times with different pronouns (I went to the beach; he went to the beach; we went to the beach) and discuss how the meaning changes with each pronoun.

Very helpful
The Lesson is Pronouns and Nouns and the book is Are You My Mother. I was too excited when I saw that I could get started immediately using a book that she already loves!
THIS WEBSITE IS VERY USEFUL.
