Challenge 1: (You may need a little help to read the task, but you should be able to have a go at the answers by yourself).
You will need: pencil, highlighter (or just another coloured pen / pencil)
VerbsWhen we are at school, we spend a lot of time practising our Literacy skills. Today you are looking at a skill that you have practised many times, in fact you are an expert at this! But it is important that we do not forget about verbs. Let’s think about the characters in the Lion King performance to help us understand more about verbs.
Look at the picture below, could you explain to the adult helping you what a verb is?
Have a go at reading these action words with an adult. Can you highlight the ing in each verb?
Mrs Proudley has now put some of these verbs into sentences. Highlight the verbs.
1. The characters are singing.
2. The characters are dancing.
Sometimes we call verbs doing words or action words.
We also know: the verbs that we look at have ing at the end of the word.
