Linking or Action? This video is designed to be a higher level follow-up video to Introducing Linking Verbs. Linking or Action? reinforces the difference between these two types of verbs in the English language. The video builds upon the basic knowledge of the linking verb by analyzing pairs of sentences to determine when the same word is acting as an action verb or a linking verb. Video imagery and voice-over combine to provide a step by step procedure for determining whether the verb in the sentence is acting as a linking verb or an action verb in a variety of simple sentence structures. The video ends with a brief review of the skills being reinforced. I’ve created an entire series of teaching videos to explain the components of English Language Arts in a way that connects them to each other and to real world reading, speaking, and writing. The links for the videos in order are below. Please look for my other videos and share them with others that may find them helpful.
