Circle the Verbs Worksheet
Looking for a simple circle the verbs worksheet for your homeschool or classroom? This free grammar activity helps students practice finding verbs in sentences. Children will read each sentence, look for the action word, and circle the verb.
This worksheet is a helpful way to introduce or review verbs with young learners. It works well for homeschool lessons, grammar centers, morning work, tutoring, extra practice, or independent review.
What Is a Verb?
A verb is a word that shows action or tells what someone or something is doing. Words like run, jump, read, write, play, and eat are action verbs.
When students learn to find verbs, they begin to understand how sentences work. This makes reading, writing, and grammar much easier.
How to Use This Circle the Verbs Worksheet
Print the worksheet and have your child read each sentence carefully. Then ask your child to find the word that shows the action. Once they find the action word, they can circle the verb.
For extra practice, students can also act out the verb, write their own sentence using the verb, or underline the noun that is doing the action.
