Class 1 Grammar Practice on Identifying Verbs

Let’s Talk Action: Engaging Verbs Worksheet for Class 1 Students

Verbs are what bring energy into our language—and this Class 1 worksheet is built to help young learners recognize, relate to, and remember action words in a fun and interactive way. Through riddles, matching, puzzles, and drawing activities, children will discover how verbs describe everyday movement and expression.

Why Action Words Are a Must-Learn for Grade 1 Kids

At this learning stage, children are constantly moving, imagining, and expressing themselves. Verbs help them describe these activities in language. With this worksheet, they will:

1. Build a strong connection between spoken action and written grammar

2. Start forming more descriptive and accurate sentences

3. Gain confidence in both reading and storytelling

4. When children learn that “run,” “draw,” and “hug” are more than just actions—they're powerful words—they begin building the foundations for writing and communication.
