Correct sentence: Show who collects letters from mailboxes and brings them to the right house.

Why this is correct: The word "who" here means one person (like a mail carrier), so the verb needs an "s" at the end: "brings" (he/she brings), not "bring".

Who does this?

  • Mail carrier (also called a postman or postal worker) collects and delivers letters.
  • They pick up outgoing letters from mailboxes and take them to the post office.
  • They also bring incoming letters to the right house by reading the address on each envelope.

How they do it - easy steps

  1. The mail carrier visits the mailbox and takes out outgoing letters.
  2. They bring those letters to the post office to be sorted.
  3. At the post office, workers sort letters by address and neighborhood.
  4. The mail carrier takes the letters for their route in a bag or truck.
  5. They go to each house and deliver the letters to the right mailbox or door using the address on the envelope.

Fun activity to try

  • Role-play: You be the mail carrier. Write an address on a paper, put it in a little envelope, and deliver it to a family member or a toy house.
  • Draw a picture of a mail carrier and a mailbox. Label the house and the address.

If you want, I can make a short worksheet or a drawing you can print for the role-play.
