Ten sentences with one action verb each: a frog hops, Sam kicks, ducks splash, Lily paints. Children circle the word that tells what someone does. Action verbs are the easiest verbs to spot because you can act them out, so try that: if you can do it, it is probably the verb. The nouns in the sentences are simple, so the verb stands out.
