               Learning objective: The students will be able to learn about pronouns.

                       Ramesh went to the store. Ramesh bought some biscuits. Ramesh

               went through the checkout lane. Then, Ramesh drove back home.

                       Now, tell me the above lines, does it sounds good? No, in the above

               sentence  we  will  get  tired  of  repeating  Ramesh.  So  we  can  replace
               Ramesh with the word He. So, the sentences will be like: Ramesh went to
               the store.  He  bought  some  biscuits.  He  went  through the  checkout  lane.
               Then, he drove back home. So, can you guess the topic? Yes , you are

               right. Today, we are going to learn pronouns.

                       Pronoun takes the place of a noun. In a sentence, we don’t have to

               say the noun over and over again. Different pronouns are used for different
               nouns.  Example:


               For  male persons                              He-Rakesh,Pratyush
               For  female persons                            She- Gita, Babita
