About these verbs worksheets
Every sentence needs a verb. These worksheets help children find the action or being word in a sentence, choose the right form (she runs, they run), sort verbs from nouns and adjectives, and learn tricky irregular past tenses like bring → brought and eat → ate.

The question bank for this topic has 12 find-the-word sentences, 8 choose-the-right-word sentences, 10 items to sort and 4 multiple-choice questions. Each worksheet mixes a selection, so no two are the same.
