Your next great Lessn starts here.

Welcome to Verbs! – Greet the class: Good morning! – Today’s focus: Learning about Verbs – Verbs show actions – Verbs tell us what someone or something does – Examples: ‘run’, ‘jump’, ‘eat’ – Like running fast, jumping high, eating snacks | This slide is designed to introduce Kindergarten students to the concept of verbs in a simple and engaging way. Start the class with a warm greeting to create a welcoming atmosphere. Explain that verbs are special words that describe actions what people, animals, or things do. Use physical demonstrations of verbs like ‘run’, ‘jump’, and ‘eat’ to help children connect the words to real-life actions. Encourage the children to perform actions as you say the verbs to reinforce their understanding through movement. This kinesthetic approach will help young learners remember that verbs are all about action.

Action Words in Action! – Verbs show us actions – Verbs tell us what someone or something is doing – Verbs like ‘jump’ and ‘dance’ – ‘Jump’ and ‘dance’ are actions you can see – Some verbs are invisible actions – ‘Think’ and ‘wish’ are actions you do in your mind – Verbs make sentences complete | This slide introduces the concept of verbs to Kindergarten students as action words. Begin by explaining that verbs are an important part of a sentence because they tell us what is happening. Show them that verbs can be actions like ‘jump’ or ‘dance’ which we can see. Also, explain that some verbs represent actions that we cannot see, such as ‘think’ or ‘wish’, which happen in our minds. Use pictures to illustrate verbs and encourage students to act out verbs they are familiar with. This will help them understand the concept of action verbs in a fun and engaging way.

Matching Action Verbs to Pictures – Verbs show action in pictures – Observe the picture closely – Look at the details in the image – Think of the action taking place – What is the subject doing? That’s your verb! – Let’s practice matching verbs! | This slide is designed to introduce Kindergarten students to the concept of action verbs through visual aids. Begin by explaining that verbs are words that describe actions or things we can do. Show them a picture and guide them to look at it carefully to identify the action taking place. Encourage them to express the action they see with a verb. For example, if the picture shows a girl running, the verb is ‘run’. Practice this activity with several pictures, asking students to match the action they observe with the appropriate verb. This interactive approach helps students understand verbs in a fun and engaging way. Make sure to provide positive feedback and support as they learn to associate actions with words.

Let’s Practice Action Verbs! – Look at the picture carefully – Think: What action is happening? – Action is what someone or something is doing – Choose the correct action verb – ‘Sleeps’ if someone is sleeping in the picture – Say the sentence with the verb – For example: ‘He jumps’, ‘She eats’ | This slide is for a class activity where students will practice identifying and using action verbs. Show a series of pictures to the class, one at a time, and ask the students to observe each picture and determine the action taking place. Remind them that verbs are words that describe actions. Provide examples of action verbs that could match the pictures you’re showing. Encourage the students to form complete sentences using the action verb that corresponds with the picture. For instance, if the picture shows a boy running, the students could say ‘He runs.’ This activity will help students understand the concept of action verbs and how to use them in sentences. Prepare a variety of pictures that depict clear actions to ensure that students have an opportunity to practice with different verbs.

Action Verbs with Pictures – Look at the picture together – Think of the action happening – What is the person or animal doing? – Choose the right action verb – Is it run, jump, eat, or sing? – Fill in the blank in the sentence – ‘The cat _____.’ If it’s sleeping, we say ‘The cat sleeps.’ | This slide is for a class activity where students will practice identifying and using action verbs in sentences that correspond to pictures. Show a picture and guide the students to observe what action is taking place. Encourage them to think aloud and come up with different verbs that could match the picture. Once they choose the most suitable action verb, help them complete the sentence with that verb. For example, if the picture shows a cat sleeping, the sentence should be completed as ‘The cat sleeps.’ This activity will help students understand the concept of action verbs and how they can be used in sentences to describe pictures or real-life actions. Prepare several pictures with clear actions for the students to practice with and ensure to provide positive feedback as they participate in the activity.

Class Activity: Verb Charades – Understand Verb Charades game – Act out verbs silently – Pretend to jump, run, or sleep without making a sound – Friends guess the action verb – Watch the actions and shout out the verb you think it is – Have fun learning verbs! | Verb Charades is an interactive class activity designed to help Kindergarten students understand action verbs through a fun game. Show a card with an action verb to one student and have them act it out silently in front of the class. The rest of the students will guess the verb based on the actions performed. This activity encourages active participation, reinforces the concept of verbs as ‘action words’, and enhances observational skills. Possible verbs to include are: jump, run, eat, sleep, dance, and swim. Make sure to explain the rules clearly and provide examples before starting the game. Rotate turns so every child gets a chance to act out a verb.

Review and Goodbye! – Great job learning verbs! – Verbs show us the action – Verbs are words like ‘run’, ‘jump’, and ‘eat’ – Practice verbs with family – Tell your day using actions – Example: ‘I jumped on the bed’, ‘I ate breakfast’ | Today’s lesson was all about understanding and recognizing verbs, which are action words. Reinforce the concept that verbs are used to describe what someone or something is doing. Encourage the children to practice using verbs at home by sharing stories from their day with their family, focusing on the actions they did. This will help them internalize the concept and become more comfortable with using verbs in their daily language. Remember to praise their efforts and the progress they’ve made in identifying and using action words.
