Teaching agreement



Finding which syntactic forms agree is really important to understand texts,
but the books that I use don't have any tips for learning how to find
agreement, e.g. which verb agrees with which noun or pronoun or whatever.
How do you teach this skill? Are there useful exercises? Are there
diagramming techniques or mark-up techniques that are helpful for this?
