1. "The visited their grandparents last weekend." This sentence does not exhibit subject-verb agreement because the subject "The" is singular, but the verb "visited" is plural. To correct it, we can change the verb to its singular form: "He visited their grandparents last weekend."
2. "The children visited their grandparents last weekend." This sentence demonstrates correct subject-verb agreement because the subject "The children" is plural, and the verb "visited" is also plural.
3. "They visited their grandparents last weekend." This sentence is correct in terms of subject-verb agreement because the subject "They" is plural, and the verb "visited" is also plural.
4. "The children visit their grandparents last weekend." This sentence does not exhibit subject-verb agreement because the subject "The children" is plural, but the verb "visit" is in the present tense. To correct it, we can use the past tense of the verb: "The children visited their grandparents last weekend."

- "The children visited their grandparents last weekend."
