Identify the Verb in a Sentence

By Jessica Policelli

Objective:
Help students identify the verb in a sentence, enhancing their understanding of sentence structure and improving their reading and writing skills.

What is a Verb?
A verb is a word that expresses an action, occurrence, or state of being. It is a crucial part of a sentence, as it often tells what the subject is doing.

Types of Verbs:

  1. Action Verbs: Describe physical or mental actions (e.g., run, think, play).
  2. Linking Verbs: Connect the subject to additional information (e.g., is, are, seem).
  3. Helping Verbs: Assist main verbs to express tense, mood, or voice (e.g., have, will, can).

How to Identify the Verb:

  1. Ask Questions:
  • Who is doing something? (Subject)
  • What are they doing? (Action/Linking Verb)
  1. Look for Action Words:
  • Words that show what the subject is doing are usually verbs.
  1. Identify Linking Verbs:
  • If the sentence describes a state of being or connects the subject to more information, find the linking verb.
  1. Check for Helping Verbs:
  • Look for auxiliary verbs that accompany a main verb.

Practice Activity:

  1. Read the following sentences:
  • The cat jumps over the fence.
  • She is a great artist.
  • They will be attending the concert.
  1. Identify the verbs and classify them as action, linking, or helping.

Tips for Success:

  • Remember that a sentence can have more than one verb.
  • Use the context of the sentence to determine the correct verb if it’s not immediately clear.
  • Practice with varied sentence structures to become more comfortable identifying verbs.

Conclusion:
Recognizing verbs is essential for mastering language skills. Encourage students to practice regularly and apply their knowledge in writing and reading exercises.
