About Reflexive and Indefinite Pronouns
What this skill is
Reflexive pronouns (myself, yourself, himself, herself, itself, ourselves, themselves) refer back to the subject of the sentence. Indefinite pronouns (someone, anybody, everything, none) refer to non-specific people or things without naming an exact antecedent.
When children learn it
Reflexive pronouns are formally introduced in 2nd grade (CCSS L.2.1.c). Indefinite pronouns and singular indefinite pronoun agreement (such as "everyone has" rather than "everyone have") are mastered in 3rd through 5th grade.
Teaching Tips
- Explain that reflexive pronouns act like a mirror: they can only appear if the exact same person was already named earlier in the sentence ("He hurt himself"). For indefinite pronouns like "everyone", remind your child to think of "every single ONE", which takes a singular verb.
Common Mistakes
- Inventing nonstandard reflexive forms like "hisself" or "theirselves" instead of using "himself" and "themselves".
- Using a reflexive pronoun as the subject of a sentence, such as writing "Myself and Maya baked cookies".
- Treating singular indefinite pronouns like "everybody" or "someone" as plural verbs, writing "Everyone are ready".
