ACTIVITIES

1. Introduction (5 minutes)

• Start by writing a few simple sentences on the board:

  • "I run."

  • "She sings."

  • "We play."

• Ask students: "What do you notice about these sentences?" (Guide them to understand that the words run, sings, and play are action words, also called verbs.)

• Introduce the term action words or verbs: "Verbs are words that tell us what someone or something is doing."

2. Action Words Flashcards (8 minutes)

• Show flashcards with pictures of people doing various actions (running, jumping, eating, etc.).

• For each picture, ask the class, "What is this person doing?"

• Write the corresponding action word on the board. For example:

  • A picture of someone running → "run"

  • A picture of someone eating → "eat"

  • A picture of someone jumping → "jump"

• Ask students to repeat the action word after you.

3. Action Word Activity (7 minutes)

• Have students stand up and follow your instructions. For example:

  • "Everyone, jump!"

  • "Now, everyone, sit down!"

  • "Can you clap your hands?"

  • "Let's all run in place!"

• After each action, ask the students, "What did you just do?" and help them identify the verb.

4. Worksheet Activity (8 minutes)

• Hand out a worksheet with pictures of people doing different actions. The worksheet will ask students to match the correct action word to each picture.

• Example:

  • A picture of a child running → Write "run"

  • A picture of a person eating → Write "eat"

  • A picture of a person jumping → Write "jump"

• Include a small section where students have to complete sentences with the correct action word (e.g., "I ___ to the park." - "run").

5. Conclusion (2 minutes)

• Review the action words learned during the lesson.

• Ask students to make their own sentences using action words. For example, "I play soccer" or "She sings a song."

• Encourage students to use as many action words as they can in their sentences.

ASSESSMENT

• Listen to the sentences students create during the conclusion activity to ensure they understand how to use action words.

• Review their worksheets to check if they matched the correct action words with the pictures.
