Sure! Here is the revised paragraph with corrections made to the pronouns, and the incorrect ones highlighted:

Everyone is excited for the pep rally. Katie and Jill are in charge of blowing up the balloons, THEIR least favorite task. THEY hate how the balloons have to be completely full or THEY won't float. On the other side of the gym, Sam is practicing the cheer routine. If HE doesn't practice, HE could embarrass HIMSELF. The last to arrive are Brynn and Avery with the shirts to give away. As long as everyone does HIS OR HER part, the pep rally will be a success.

The corrections are:

  1. "her" to "THEIR" (to match Katie and Jill)
  2. "you" to "HE" (to match Sam)
  3. "you" to "HE" (to match the subject Sam)
  4. "yourself" to "HIMSELF" (to match the subject Sam)
  5. "her" to "HIS OR HER" (to be inclusive of all genders)

Keep in mind that depending on the context, "HIS OR HER" can also be replaced with "THEIR" for a more gender-neutral approach.
