A reflexive pronoun is used when the subject and the object are the same person or thing. Words like myself, yourself, himself, herself, itself, ourselves, yourselves, and themselves help show that someone does an action to themselves. For example, I made the card myself and The cat cleaned itself. In these Grade 2 grammar quizzes, students practice choosing the correct reflexive pronouns in simple sentences.

Why Reflexive Pronouns Matter in Second Grade
In 2nd grade, children begin to write more complex sentences and need to understand how pronouns refer back to the subject. Learning reflexive pronouns—such as myself, yourself, himself, herself, ourselves, and themselves—helps young writers avoid repetitive phrasing and make their sentences flow naturally. This is a core developmental milestone in elementary writing, helping students transition from simple sentence structures to cohesive storytelling.
Tips for Home and Classroom Practice
- Act it out: Have children perform simple actions and describe them. For example, "I poured the milk myself."
- Spot the singular vs. plural: Point out that singular reflexive pronouns end in "-self" while plural ones end in "-selves."
- Practice regularly: Quick, daily practice sessions help cement these rules without overwhelming young learners.
With consistent exposure, second graders will naturally begin incorporating these pronouns into their daily speaking and writing.
