Hello Everyone!
I hope you all had a wonderful Memorial Day Weekend!
Today we discussed Subject-Verb agreement.
When a subject (noun) is singular, (I, Me, You, She, He, Alex, the dog, the building) we use singular verbs. HINT: Singular verbs do not end in S (are, have, were)
When a subject (noun) is plural, (we, they, dancers, cats, buildings) we use plural verbs. HINT: Plural verbs DO end in S (is, has, was).
For Homework: Read the sentences below. Determine which verb is the correct verb.
Level 1:
1. Each of the dogs (have, has) their own bowl.
2. The cost of new tires (was, were) more that we thought.
3. Most of the paintings (are, is) finished now.
Level 2:
1. Food drive donations (go, goes) in that box.
2. Few of these jobs (sound, sounds) very challenging.
3. The firefighters (shop, shops) there weekly.

2. Neither Alexander nor Elizabeth (owns, own) a car.
