#31: Next Level Verbs

Next level parts of speech—verbs ! (See the “intro” to verbs episode here!https://languageartsladyblog.com/10mg_bonus/) Today’s episode about verbs covers the following: The sneaky cat CLIMBS.  First three kinds of verbs  1. Action 2. Being/helping/linking 3. Infinitives   Why action? 1. Forward motion of sentences  2. What the subject is doing (action) 3. Match in number, person, and tense  4. Need to help kids see that “action” verbs are all non-being, helping, and linking verbs (ie sleep)   Why BHL? (Being, helping, linking) 1. They can stand alone/show being 2. Beginning of verb phrase—need to match subject! 3. By themselves, they can’t have adverbs.  4. Teach story writers to get rid of BHL verbs by themselves   Why infinitives (to+verb) 1. Distinguish between prepositions (to the fair) Vs infinitive (to run, to be) 2. Students need to recognize when a verb phrase ends because there is a prepositional phrase next (has been to the gym) Vs when it continues because there is an infinitive in it (has gone to run) 3. Students need to recognize prepositional phrases to mentally get rid of them and match.    (Don’t forget to get your free single parts of speech poster to follow along with this series (and to use with your students!). https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/10-Parts-of-Speech-Order-Single-Poster-and-Reference-Ring-Card-Free-8158423 Or get the entire 80-piece parts of speech poster and reference ring card set at one of my stores! https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Order-of-10-Parts-of-Speech-Poster-Pack-and-Reference-Ring-Cards-8391091 ___ Look me up for more information and links to my resources:      Language Arts Lady Blog: https://languageartsladyblog.com/   Language Arts Lady Store: https://languageartsladystore.com/   Teachers Pay Teachers Store: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/Language-Arts-Lady-With-Donna-Reish   How I Teach YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC20OP_HNTUm8eBMNgMh06sQ   Our Homeschool History YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IUKW-AXDovY&list=PLjS7lbVmIJpx-3kxpeE8ianP4Ux1BX5iE   Our Homeschool History Episodes: https://languageartsladyblog.com/ourhomeschoolhistory   How I Teach Episodes: https://languageartsladyblog.com/howiteach/   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thelanguageartslady/   Monday Mini Mail (Archived Articles): https://languageartsladyblog.com/monday-mini-mail/    10Minute Grammar Podcast: https://languageartsladyblog.com/10-minute-grammar/   Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/characterinkhs/_created/   Facebook/Language Arts Lady: https://www.facebook.com/charactertrainingfromtheheart   Punctuation Puzzles: https://languageartsladyblog.com/articles/punctuation-puzzles/    2022-2023 Classes and Tutoring: https://characterinkblog.com/classesandtutoring/   All LAL Freebies: https://languageartsladyblog.com/freebies/   How I Teach iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/how-i-teach/id1552986393
