Looking for some engaging lessons to teach your students about main verbs, helping verbs, linking verbs, and verb tenses? My teaching partner and I created these lessons to excite our students about grammar. We have grammar sets for many of the third grade grammar standards. Verbs is one of our larger packets. We created it with a sports theme. In fact, each of our grammar sets is based around a theme. We have done very well on state testing due in part to these lessons. Also, our students love grammar time because of these sets! You can view all of our sets at our TPT store.

I wanted to focus on what I love about this verb set of lessons and activities!!! This is my second year using the set and my third grade students adore all the activities. Really, I am tricking them into learning about verbs because they are having so much fun learning that they do not know they are grasping needed standards.
Each of our sets come with anchor chart pieces and then a matching student notebook page. This set actually includes pieces to make three anchor charts and three student notebook pages. My students love their language arts notebooks.
Our lessons always include ideas on ways to really engage students. In our verb tense lessons in this set we use the Children’s book called The Great Fuzz Frenzy. It is a super cute story – you can see more of it on You Tube at
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zvmiMYmj6jU and you can get the book on Amazon at https://amzn.to/3e16p8P ! Tennis balls is a big part of this story and in our verb tense lesson we use tennis balls to create Minute to Win It Centers using Tennis Balls (I always borrow the tennis balls from the gym teacher). The students work in teams for chances to win some playing time. They love this!!!
