Combining Words

Worksheet Description

This worksheet presents an exercise on state of being verbs, providing two columns for students to work with: one with state of being verbs and the other with predicate adjectives. Students are instructed to create sentences by combining a word from each column. The verbs listed include “sound,” “act,” “get,” “remain,” “become,” and “is,” and they are to be paired with adjectives like “beautiful,” “complicated,” “fortunate,” and others. The layout includes six blank spaces for students to write their sentences, accompanied by colorful illustrations that add a visual element to the learning activity.

The worksheet is designed to teach students how to use state of being verbs in conjunction with predicate adjectives to form complete sentences that describe the subject. Through this activity, students learn that state of being verbs do not show action but instead connect the subject of the sentence to additional information about the subject’s state or quality. By creating sentences, students can practice their understanding of how these verbs function grammatically and how they affect sentence meaning. This exercise helps students enhance their sentence construction skills and deepens their comprehension of the role of verbs and adjectives in English grammar.
