The subject names who or what the sentence is about. The predicate is everything the sentence says about it, starting with the verb.

2nd grade
Subject and predicate worksheets for second grade use short sentences with clear naming parts. Your child underlines the complete subject, and the answer key shows it marked, with everything after it being the predicate. Sentences stay simple: one subject, one verb.

Third grade subject and predicate worksheets grow the subjects: added describing words (the tall oak tree) and compound subjects joined by and. Your child underlines the complete subject, and the split between subject and predicate lands right before the verb.

4th grade
Fourth grade worksheets use longer, more natural sentences where the subject carries phrases (the boy in the striped shirt) and the predicate stacks details. Underlining the complete subject at this level is the setup skill for clauses and complex sentences.
