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.
