Here is a mini-unit I made for action verbs.
I hope you can use it.
If anyone has any good verb ideas, please share some links. I would love it!

I am trying to get prepared for the new year. I am working on antonyms and abc order next, in case anyone has any to share....hint...hint... :)
That's really cute! Good job!
ReplyDeleteThank you for the action verbs activity. That's always a hard one for my students. I wish I was at work to upload my ABC order activities. I will post about it when I get back to work.
ReplyDeleteOne thing I can share is how I get the students started with ABC order. I make an alphabet strip for each student and have them laminated. Make sure you have both capital & lowercase letters. We use them everytime we work on ABC order. When I first introduce this we work as a whole group with white boards. We look at our weekly words and check for any words starting with the letter A. If we have one we write it, if not we move on but not before we cross out the letter A on our alphabet strip & the word we just wrote. We do this until all our words are written. After a few weeks of this I no longer do this in whole group but print up a sheet with my students weekly words and he alphabet printed at the bottom. They follow the same steps but do it in their own. Sometimes with a buddy. By the end of the year they can put their words in ABC order on their own or using only the alphabet posted in my room.
Sorry, I can't share any examples or pictures.

Thanks for the ideas! I am exhausted trying to come up with some new stuff. Hopefully we can all share!
ReplyDeleteI know exactly what you mean. It's exhausting being creative. It's very nice when others share what they've come up with too.

Love you action verb books!!!!! I am going to laminate the second book and put it in a center...then I am going to have the students circle the action verbs with a vis-a-vis and fill out a worksheet (I'm going to make one, unless you already have one)!!!!
ReplyDeleteFor ABC order...you already know my idea from my blog. Another way (valentines theme) is to have a baggie of the candy hearts that have words on them, they can put them in ABC order. :)
Here is the ABC order link if you need it.
