Explicit Instruction/Teacher Modeling (5 minutes)
Have your students play charades and act out the action to other members of the class.
Invite the other students to guess the action.
Ask the students to make a sentence with that action word. For example: Raj is eating. Rahul is hopping like a frog.
Explain that the action words are verbs.
Guided Practice/Interactive Modeling (5 minutes)
Separate your students into groups of 4-5.
Instruct them to play this game of action charades, and make sure each person acts at least once.
