Possessive Adjectives Spanish Practice Worksheets

Are you working on your lesson plans for Spanish possessive adjectives with your middle school and high school Spanish students? Check out these educational resources for your possessive adjectives Spanish grammar lesson!

​Types of Possessive Adjectives

Short Form

• mi
• tu
• su
• nuestro/a
• vuestro/a
• su

Long Form

• mío/a
• tuyo/a
• suyo/a
• nuestro/a
• vuestro/a
• suyo/a

Correct Use of Possessive Adjectives

When choosing the correct possessive adjective, students will choose the singular form, or the plural form, as well as the masculine form or feminine form. It’s a little different from English grammar! Check out the images above as a reference guide. You could also print them for your students as a reference sheet if you would like! You’ll note that I have a little Spanish flag on the vosotros form. I do that because I like to show students the vosotros forms so they have at least seen them, but I remind them that Latin America doesn’t use those forms. 

Independent Work

​Task Cards

Task Cards are a great option for independent work. You hang them around the room and students move from card to card to complete their answer sheet. Then, you can go over the correct answers as a whole class or grade them individually. These possessive adjective task card worksheets include:

• write in the missing Spanish possessive adjectives
• complete the phrase with the correct possessive adjective
• fill in the blank sentences

There are also blank questions cards so you can add more practice for your students!

Boom Cards

Boom Cards are like digital versions of task cards! They work like an interactive quiz game where students answer the questions and get immediate feedback on the correct answers. This interactive digital resource includes:

• fill in the chart with the missing Spanish possessive adjectives
• fill in the blank with the correct possessive adjective
• identify the correct possessive adjective, then fill in the blank
• unscramble the sentence
• write the plural form of the given phrase
• write the singular form of the given phrase
• choose the appropriate possessive adjective according to the sentence
• write a sentence using a possessive adjective, based on the provided information

These make great extra practice or a fast finisher activity for your lesson plans!

Video Lesson Ideas

If you’re looking for a great video lesson, you’ll love this free resource on Youtube! Señor Jordan makes excellent videos with a great explanation for various grammar topics. Here are his videos on Spanish possessive adjectives:

• Learn Spanish – Possessive adjectives (part 1)
• Spanish Lesson – Possessives (part 2); nuestro, su
• Stressed Possessive Adjectives Explanation (intermediate Spanish)
• Possessive Pronouns – Practice #1 (intermediate Spanish)
• Stressed Possessive Adjectives Practice #2 (intermediate Spanish)
• Possessive Pronouns – Practice #3 (intermediate Spanish)

I like using the practice activity video lesson options as a warm up or wrap up at the end of class. Sometimes it’s just nice for students to hear from someone other than their own Spanish teacher! You can also use these videos with Edpuzzle for a sub plan. 

Los Adjetivos Posesivos Games

Corre en Círculos

This is one of my favorite Spanish conjugation games! It’s such a great review game to get your students up and moving around the room as they play this scavenger hunt style game. Students read the prompt on the bottom of the page, record their answer on a piece of paper, then move around the room to find the correct answer on the next sheet on the wall and complete the next prompt until they finish the circle.

Check out 10 ways you can use these clue cards with your Spanish classes!

Scrambled Sentences

One of the most challenging pieces of Spanish grammar is getting the different words in the correct order. Scrambled sentences are a great way to get your students thinking and talking about the language collaboratively!

Groups or partners work together to reassembled the scrambled sentence while working on the targeted structures. It’s a great way to change up from your standard possessive adjectives worksheets as students use their language skills in this hands on review.

Here’s how to set it up:

1. Print and cut apart the sentences. You can use the pre scrambled sheets and have your Spanish students cut them out, too!
2. Make copies of the student answer sheet. Each student should have one
3. Split students into pairs
4. Students get one sentence at a time and work to put it in order. 
5. When they think they have it, they raise their hand for you to check, or you can post the correct answers on the board or up at your desk for them to double check their own work
6. Students record the correct answers on their answer sheet in Spanish and in English
7. Students grab the following sentence and repeat until they’ve completed all 10

If your students are struggling with word order, this is the right resource to practice!
