Linking Verbs: Correct or Incorrect #3

Learn your linking verbs as you read and edit sentences in this engaging third-grade worksheet! Learners will be asked to read over eight sentences describing different situations. They’ll need to decide whether the linking verb in the sentence was used correctly. If not, they will need to write the correct linking verb. 

This worksheet is perfect for students learning about the different types of verbs beyond simple action verbs. Linking verbs allow writers to show a feeling or state of being; they can help students tell about their own thoughts and write descriptively. As they complete this worksheet, learners can see how linking verbs are used and the function they have in each sentence.
