5.1 Action Verbs
What is an action verb?
• An action verb is a word that expresses
action.
• Think back: Every sentence has two parts,
a subject and a predicate. The main word
in the predicate is often an action verb.
• The action verb tells what the subject of
the sentence does or did.
What are the action verbs in the
following sentences?
• Sylvia entered the short story contest.
• Now many people read her story.
• We enjoy her tale about a leprechaun.
Verbs can also express action you
cannot see.
• I wonder about the contest.

5.3 Main Verbs
and Helping Verbs
Think Back…
• You remember that sometimes a simple
predicate can be more than one word.
Some sentences have two verbs!!
• The main verb shows what the subject
does or is.
• The helping verb helps the main verb to
show an action in the sentence.
– By itself, a helping verb cannot show action.
Examples
• Stan and Jan are entering the talent
contest.
• I can help them rehearse.
• They will dance together.

5.4 What is a
Linking Verb?
What is a linking verb?
• Some verbs do not show action. Verbs
that do not show action are called
linking verbs.
• A linking verb is a verb that links the
subject of a sentence to a noun or an
adjective in the predicate. The word that
follows the linking verb names or
describes the subject of the sentence.
• Many linking verbs are forms of the
verb to be.
Example
• The state fair is a treat.
Pay Attention!!!!
• Some verbs can be either linking verbs
or action verbs.
• The fairgrounds look pretty. (linking verb)
• You can look at the Ferris Wheel.

5.5 Verb
Contractions
When we speak we use
contractions. What is a contraction?
• A contraction is a word made from two
words. Contractions are often used in
informal writing and in conversation.
**You NEVER use contractions in your
FORMAL writing (like a story or writing
prompt)!!
• Sometimes you can combine a verb with
the word not to form a verb contraction.
• Use an apostrophe (‘) in place of the letter
or letters that have been left out.

5.12 Using Commas
Think back…
• What do you do if you are wanting to
combine two sentences to make them into
a compound sentence?
• You use a comma to separate the
sentences!!!
• We also use commas to separate words in
a series or list.
• Example:
• We brought poles, hooks, and hip boots.
**Use a comma to separate each item in a
list.
***Use the conjunction and or or before the
last item in the list.
Do I need a comma in this
sentence?
We brought poles and hooks.
**NO, because it is not a series.
Let’s practice!!
