- On Wednesday, my family will eat at Red Robin.
- The brown dog has escaped from the yard.
Lesson: Today we reviewed what the students learned about helping verbs, and the students also learned about linking verbs.
- Helping verbs help out the action verb.
- The bear is eating a fish.
- "Is" is a helping verb because it is helping the action verb "eating."
- Linking verbs connect an object to a describing word.
- The bear is hungry.
- "Is" is a linking verb because it is linking "bear" to the describing word "hungry." "Is" could not be a helping verb because it is not helping an action verb.
Homework: None
