Teaching verbs in 2nd grade can be SUPER fun! There are so many engaging resources and activities that can be used to help students master this skill. Check out this post for engaging verbs resources that are meaningful and ready to use!

What are Verbs?

Let’s start by defining verbs. If you look up verb in the dictionary, it says: a word used to describe an action, state or occurrence. There are three main types of verbs: action verbs, helping verbs and linking verbs.

Verb Examples

Check out these examples of each type of verb to help your students (and you) gain a better understanding of the verb types.

a) Action Verbs

The action verb is the type students are mostly likely familiar with. Action verbs describe what someone or something does. Here are some examples:

  • jump
  • sit
  • run
  • walk
  • think
  • read
  • sleep

b) Helping Verbs

Helping verbs help the main verb describe the action. Examples:

  • am
  • could
  • have
  • are
  • was
  • had
  • would
  • were

c) Linking Verbs

Linking verbs describe a condition. You could say they link a subject to a noun or adjective in a sentence. Here are some examples:

  • is
  • am
  • are
  • was
  • being
  • been
  • were

Bonus: Check out this post, Teaching Linking Verbs to dig into this grammar skill!

d) Irregular Verbs

These are verbs that don’t follow the “-ed” pattern when in the past tense. Examples:

  • wear-wore
  • feel-felt
  • draw-drew
  • fly-flew
  • speak-spoke
  • catch-caught
  • do-did

To find out WAY more information on irregular verbs, head to this post: 5 Resources for Teaching Irregular Plural Nouns & Irregular Verbs.

The bell
has already rung Lesson 9 begins0055 They pulled up and smiled.
looked at each other

3. Determining the topic of the lesson and setting the goal of the lesson

- Guess the riddle:

It runs, it heals, it is fleeting, it is endless.

- What I'm talking about?

+ It's time.

- Time is a word that is key in determining the topic of our lesson.

- Who can formulate the topic of our lesson?

+ Changing verbs by tense.

- Define the objectives of our lesson. What will we be in the lesson, what should we learn?

+ We will determine the tense of verbs, we will train to change verbs in tenses, to use verbs correctly in speech.

4. Updating knowledge

How many tenses do we know of a verb?

- What are the tenses of the verbs?

How can you determine the tense of a verb?

+ On the question.

- What helper words do we use to make it easier to determine the tense of the verb?

+ Yesterday, today, tomorrow.

What questions do the past tense verbs answer? Give examples.

What questions do present tense verbs answer? Give examples.

What questions do future tense verbs answer? Give examples.

5. Postman game

Let's play the postman game. There are envelopes on the board. They have an address: past tense, present tense, future tense. Take a card with a verb, determine the tense of the verb and put it in the correct envelope.

Tablets with verbs: go, play, build, draw, run, talk, sing, read, blossom.

6. Changing verbs by tense. Working with phraseological units

Phraseological phrases are written on the board:

nod off

pout

beat with a forehead

lose your head

Read. Have you heard such expressions? Do you know what they stand for? How do you understand them?

I will read you the meaning of each phraseological unit from the dictionary. You have to guess what phraseologism we are talking about.

Nodding - sitting and plunging into a nap, then falling asleep, then waking up. Nodding over a textbook.

Bash - bow to the ground, bow respectfully. Ask someone for something.

Pout - take offense.

Lose your head - getting into a difficult situation, getting confused and not knowing what to do, being conceited, thinking a lot about yourself about your abilities, usually from success, from fame. Fall in love recklessly.

Now we read the phraseological unit, call the verb, pose a question and change this verb at times.

You have cards with a sign on your desks. Same board on the board. We will write the verbs in the table.

indefinite form

Past tense

present tense

Future

what to do?

peck

pecked

pecks

will peck

beat

beats

will beat

what to do?

inflate

puffed up

lose

7.

Physical education

“Now let’s get some rest.

If you meet a verb in the past tense, you will certainly sit down.

If in the present - stand up, but if you meet his majesty in the future - clap your hands.

They thought she was cracking, she squeaked, she would sing, tell, she turned white, she would fall silent.

8. Working with text. Creative work

A story about a boy is written on the board. As you can see, instead of many verbs there are questions. I will read to you.

- It is necessary to insert verbs of the right tense that are suitable in meaning.

A boy was walking down the street and dreaming. Here (what will he do?) ... he is big (what will he do?) ... to the moon, (what will he do?) ... some kind of feat.

Suddenly the boy hears: someone (what is he doing?) ... This is a small kitten (what has he done?) ... into the pit and (what is he doing?) ... there. The boy (what did he do?) . .. the kitten and (what did he do?) ... further.

He again (what did he do?) ... about flights to the moon, about exploits.

- Collaboration. Read the sentences and fill in the appropriate verbs.

- Read what you got. Do you think this boy will be an astronaut?

Differentiated Approach:

Strong students are given a card with a text with missing verbs. Weaker students simply write out the verbs and determine the time.

Write the verbs in your notebook and write their tense.

- We're checking. Read the written verbs and say the tense of the verb. We check the chain.

9. End of the lesson. Lesson summary

- What did we do in class?

How do verbs change?

+ By numbers and by times

Questionnaire for each child.

1) I was at the lesson

A) interesting
B) not interested

2) Your work in the lesson

A) I am satisfied (flax)
B) not quite satisfied (flax)
C) not satisfied (flax)
