Grab Another Subject-Verb Agreement Activity!

This is the perfect resource to enhance reading and writing instruction in the classroom or digital learning environment. This activity has students reading and practicing using past, present, and future tense verbs in context. With a Google Slides interactive, students can drag and drop their way to mastery of subject-verb agreement. This interactive activity focuses on the use of the three verb tenses.

To play, students will open the Google Slides activity in “edit” mode, not presentation mode. Each slide has students interacting with moveable and clickable pieces to determine the appropriate verb needed to maintain the subject-verb agreement.

Students will show their ability produce sentences with the correct subject-verb agreement through this activity.

Tips for Differentiation + Scaffolding 

A dedicated, experienced educator team created this resource to support your English Language Arts and writing lessons.

In addition to individual student work time, use this activity to enhance learning through guided writing groups, whole class lessons, or remote learning assignments.

Suppose you have a mixture of above and below-level learners and ELL/ESL students. In that case, we have a few suggestions for keeping students on track with these concepts:

🆘 Support Struggling Students

Complete the activities as a whole group, encouraging students to interact with the lesson and talk about their learning.

Have students work in pairs or small groups to complete the activity.

➕ Challenge Fast Finishers

Have students extend their learning by writing sentences or stories of their own using is, are, was, and were.

🧑‍🏫 Group Learning

Project the slides onto a screen and work through them as a class by having students record their answers in their notebooks or mini whiteboards.
