List of Verbs for Kids - Verb Online Games

A verb is a word that conveys ACTION, OCCURRENCE, or STATE OF BEING. Verbs are needed to form complete sentences or questions. In a sentence, a verb works as the main component of the predicate, the part of a sentence that indicates what the subject (person or thing) is or does. The three main types of verbs are action verbs, helping verbs, and linking verbs. Unlike most of the other parts of speech, verbs change their form. Pair our lists of verbs for kids with our fun verb online games for engaging practice!

Everything on Verbs
Verbs Tenses	show when the action in the sentence takes place
Irregular Verbs	are verbs that do not follow the rules for changing tenses
Action Verbs	describe something that a person, animal, thing, or force of nature can do
Linking Verbs	do not describe an action, but tell about the state or condition of subjects
Helping Verbs	are a set of two or three consonant letters that when pronounced, retain their sound

Verbs Tenses

A verb tense shows when the action in the sentence takes place. In English, there are a total of 12 verb tenses, as well as conditional tenses that indicate when an action may or may not happen.

The three main tenses on lists of verbs for kids are:

Past – an action has already happened
Present – an action is currently happening
Future – an action will happen at a later time

Verbs are conjugated to communicate details, such as person, number, gender, tense or mood. The following table shows the verb “walk” conjugated to the three main verb forms with the subject being “I”.

Verb Tenses List
Past	Yesterday, I walked to the park.
Present	I walk to the park.
Future	Next week, I will walk to the park.

A verb like “walk” is a regular verb because it follows set rules when conjugated (adding -ed to indicate past tense, for example). Irregular verbs, however, are verbs that do not follow the rules for changing tense. For instance,the verb “sing” is an irregular verb. It does not follow the rule for past tense verbs as “sanged,” but rather as the irregular conjugation “sang.”

Irregular Verbs List
Verb	Past Tense
break	broke
buy	bought
do	did
drive	drove
eat	ate
feel	felt
find	found
grow	grew
have	had
ring	rang

Types of Verbs

Not all verbs serve the same function. Verbs fall into three basic categories: action, linking, and helping.

Action Verbs

Action verbs describe something that a person, animal, thing, or force of nature can do. Verbs like run or jump are examples of action verbs.

Action Verbs Lists
K-2 Verbs	3-5 Verbs	6-8 Verbs	9-12 Verbs
eat	climb	compose	negotiate
run	grasp	emphasize	fluctuate
jump	borrow	interrupt	modify
drink	laugh	persuade	extinguish
walk	paint	investigate	thrive
chop	observe	erupt	eavesdrop
sing	rescue	adjust	acquire
act	search	vibrate	abolish
kick	travel	pursue	confiscate
mix	celebrate	verify	plunder

Linking Verbs

Linking verbs do not describe an action, but tell about the state or condition of subjects. They link the subject with either a noun that renames it or an adjective that describes it. For example, the word “am” in the sentence “I am tall” describes the subject. There are some action verbs that function as linking verbs, such as grow. In the sentence “He grows tired,” the verb describes the subject rather than an action, so it works as a linking verb. Below are a list of other linking verbs.

Linking Verbs List
Forms of be	be, am, is, are, was, were, been, being
Other linking verbs	appear, become, feel, grow, look, seem, remain, smell, sound, stay, taste, turn

Helping Verbs

Helping verbs do not express action, and they cannot stand alone in a sentence without another verb present. They are part of verb phrases that “help” the main verb. Helping verbs define the tense (past, present, future) or change the meaning of the main verb. The verb “will” functions as a linking verb in the sentence “He will eat” because it helps the main verb “eat” and indicated a future tense. Some common helping verbs:

Helping Verbs List
will	must	must	had
had	do	shall	may
was	am	did	did
have	were	is	does
should	has	been	are
being	could	might	having

The following table shows 50 common English verbs conjugated in the past, present, and future tense using the subject “I.” These are commonly found on lists of verbs for kids.

Dictations in the Russian language

Grade

Topic: “Verb”

Dictations presented here are conducted with students of grade 3 secondary educational institutions. The purpose of writing dictations is to check the degree of assimilation of the studied topic by 3rd grade students. The level of complexity of dictations and other tasks corresponds to the level of preparation of students in the 3rd grade of elementary school.

Test dictations on the topic: Verb

Selective dictations

1. Write out the verbs, indicate the tense of the verbs.

I. 2) The sky darkened. Clouds have fled from everywhere. They surrounded, caught and closed the sun (A. Gaidar). 3) Soon the birds will sing, the bushes will turn green in the forest (I. Surikov).

II. 1) Thunderstorms rumbled. 2) One day lightning struck an old oak tree on top of a hill. 3) The wind will blow, the birch will shake. 4) Snow covered the ground. 5) There are slanting snowdrifts, and only in some places branches of bushes stick out of them.

2. Write out the verbs with the particle not, indicate the tense of the verbs.

Riddles.

1) She doesn’t speak, she doesn’t sing, but whoever goes to the owner, she lets know. (Dog.) 2) Metu, metu - I won’t sweep it, I carry it, I carry it - I can’t bear it, it gets dark - it will go away by itself. (Shadow.) 3) Who does not spin, does not weave, but clothes people. (Baran.) 4) I didn’t count miles, I didn’t drive on the roads, but I’ve been overseas. (Starling.) 5) The silver horse ran all over the sea, but did not wet his feet. (Month, moon.)

Restored dictations

Write out verbs from the text spoken by ear, then restore the text according to the supporting verbs and write it down.

Willow Feast

The willow has blossomed. Each willow lamb is a downy yellow chicken: it sits and glows. The guests rush to the feast.

The bumblebee has arrived. Bassed, tossed and turned, all smeared with pollen. The ants came running. They pounced on the pollen, and their bellies swelled like barrels. The mosquitoes have arrived. The flies are buzzing. Everyone is hustling and rushing.

The willow will turn green - the feast is over.

Spring-red

The sun joyfully shines on a spring day. The snow is melting fast on the fields. Cheerful, talkative streams ran along the roads. The ice on the river turned blue. Smelly, sticky buds puffed out on the trees. Rooks have already arrived from the warm regions. Important, black, they walk along the roads. The guys put birdhouses on the trees. They rush from school to see if there are any spring guests - starlings.

Migratory birds

Quails flew home from warm countries. They flew over the sea. On the way they were caught by a storm. The birds are tired. They sat down to rest on the masts of the ship. The sailors poured bread crumbs and seeds onto the deck. The birds began to peck at the food. Here comes the sun. The sea has calmed down. The birds warmed up, took off, spread their wings and set off.

Words for reference: poured, on the deck, seeds, calmed down.

Warning (explanatory) dictations

Window view

I looked in the window. The fog has long since disappeared. The sun was shining. A stream lapped lazily below. Cherry bushes grew along the banks. Bird voices rang out. A reddish clay cliff led straight to the water. The path snaked down to the water. Behind the river, the taiga was green, so elegant in the radiance of the sun.

April

April is the month of spring. The spring drops are merrily ringing. Puddles sparkle in the yards. The puddles show the sun and the blue sky. The sparrows chirp fervently. There is no more snow in the fields. The ice turned blue and puffed up. Wild ducks have already arrived from the south. Young green grass appeared in the clearing. The first flowers came out. A merry song of a lark rang out in the blue sky.

Thunderstorm on the river

I went fishing. I threw my fishing rods at the willow. The sun floated calmly over the forest. Suddenly, a cloud rolled out from behind the mound. The sky darkened. Thunderstorm began. Here I pecked. The line was stretched. Copper ide shone in the depths. I brought the fish to the shore and threw it into the grass. Lightning swept across the sky, crashed overhead, and the ide jumped up in the grass. The rain hit the water hard. The river boiled and stirred. Lightning flashed over the water. It became scary. Suddenly the rain stopped.

Test dictations

In the spring

The spring sun warmed the earth. Spring drops rang. Noisy sparrows roar near the houses. Talking streams ran from the hillocks. The fields turned green. Willow branches covered with golden balls. Dove snowdrops bloomed in the forest. Titmouse flew merrily from branch to branch. They were looking for worms in the folds of tree bark. Black grouse flocked to the meadows. Birds drew on the ground with their wings and started noisy games. Soon the cranes will fly home. (64 words)

Spring in the forest

Good spring in the forest! Birds sing loudly. Spring streams ring under the trees. Fragrant sticky buds smell of resin. The sun gently warmed the earth. A warm wind ran through the high peaks. The leaves on the trees turned green. Young grass has appeared. White and blue snowdrops bloomed in the forest clearings. The vociferous nightingales sang over the streams. Busy ants ran over the bumps. The first bumblebee hummed. Moose were grazing on the trail. (62 words)

Words for reference: in the sun, affectionately.

In the field

It was good in the field. A warm breeze blew. Gently warmed the spring sun. Tractors easily pulled plows. The plows turned over the black layers of earth. Jackdaws were the first to see work in the field. The whole flock of birds flew to the plowing. Starlings and rooks flew into the field. Seagulls flocked to the poultry yard. Birds peck at worms. The bravest climb right under the plow. A good dinner was given to the birds by the spring land. (60 words)

Words for reference: affectionately, turned over, plowing.
