What to Focus On
- A verb shows action, being, or possession.
- Every sentence must have a verb.
- Verbs can be one word or more than one word.
- Action verbs show what someone does (e.g., run, jump, play).
- Being verbs show what someone or something is (e.g., am, is, are, was, were).
- Having verbs show what someone has (e.g., has, have, had).
- A verb can be one word (e.g., jumps, sings).
- A verb can be two or more words (e.g., is jumping, will sing).
- Helping verbs like 'is', 'are', 'was', 'have', 'will' join with main verbs to form multi-word verbs.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Only action words like 'run' or 'jump' are verbs.
If a word ends with -ing, it must be a verb.
A sentence can have more than one main verb.
