Information
Description
What It Is:
This is an English grammar worksheet focused on identifying gerunds, infinitives, and participles. It provides definitions and examples of each type of verbal. The worksheet then presents a series of sentences where students must underline the verbal, identify whether it is a gerund, infinitive, or participle, and determine if it functions as a noun, adjective, or adverb.
Grade Level Suitability:
This worksheet is suitable for grades 6-9. It requires an understanding of parts of speech, verb tenses, and sentence structure, which are typically taught in middle school. The concepts of gerunds, infinitives, and participles are more advanced grammar topics.
Why Use It:
This worksheet helps students master the identification and function of verbals (gerunds, infinitives, and participles). It reinforces understanding of parts of speech and improves sentence analysis skills. It clarifies how verbals can act as different parts of speech within a sentence, leading to improved writing and comprehension.
How to Use It:
Students should first read the definitions and examples provided at the top of the worksheet. Then, for each sentence, they should underline the verbal. In the 'Type of Verbal' column, they should write whether the underlined verbal is a gerund, infinitive, or participle. Finally, in the 'Part of Speech' column, they should indicate whether the verbal functions as a noun, adjective, or adverb in that specific sentence.
Target Users:
This worksheet is designed for middle school and early high school students learning about verbals. It's helpful for students who need extra practice identifying and understanding the function of gerunds, infinitives, and participles in sentences. It can also be used as a review for students preparing for standardized tests.
