Subject and Direct Objects

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is designed to help students practice writing sentences in both active and passive voice. For each subject and direct object pair listed, students are instructed to write one sentence in active voice, where the subject performs the action, and another in passive voice, where the subject is acted upon. The worksheet provides the subject and direct object for each sentence, such as “Sarah / sewing” and “Frank / test”, to guide the sentence construction.

The worksheet’s purpose is to enhance students’ understanding of the difference between active and passive voice by creating sentences that illustrate each. It teaches them to recognize how the subject and verb interact in a sentence and to alter sentence structure to shift between active and passive constructions. This exercise not only improves students’ grammar skills but also increases their flexibility in writing, allowing them to choose the voice that best suits the context of their communication.
