Teaching tips & learning objectives
Learning objectives
Identify the command verb (imperative) within a given sentence.
Convert a polite request into a direct command, and a positive command into its negative form.
Compose original command sentences using a supplied verb.
Teaching tips
Start with the underline-the-verb worksheet before the request-to-command conversion page, since identifying command verbs in context is a simpler task than transforming sentence structure.
Pair the negative-form worksheet with the original-command-writing worksheet in the same session, since both ask students to generate rather than just identify commands.
Skills covered
Command verb identification — students locate the imperative verb within a full sentence.
Sentence transformation — students convert polite requests into direct commands and positive commands into negative ones.
Original sentence composition — students write their own command sentences using a supplied verb.
