Action Verb
• An action verb is a work that tells what the subject of a sentences does, did, or will do.
• The verb is the main word of a predicate. It can be action or being.
• Many times a sentence with an action verb has a direct object – a word that receives the action. The word is often a noun. The direct object answers the question whom? or what? after the verb. You will not find a direct object inside a prepositional phrase.

Follow these steps in order:1. Underline the complete subject once.2. Underline the complete predicate twice.3. Sing the “Preposition Song” to find the prepositional
phrases and put ( ) around. 4. Find the simple subject (noun) and put SS above the word.5. Find the simple predicate (action verb) and put SP above
the word.6. If the sentence has a direct object (usually a noun,
answers who? or what?, and receives the action) put DO above the word.
