Explanation:

Subject Verb Agreement-

There is an agreement between subject and verb means when the subject is singular it's verb also be a singular verb and if subject is plural it's verb also be a plural verb.

examples-

1. He is writing a poem.
2. They are writing poems.
3. I am writing a story.

here, in the first example he is a singular subject so it is followed by 'is' a singular helping verb.

While in the second sentence the subject is 'they' a plural subject so it is followed by 'are' a plural form of helping verb.
