Pronoun Clarity Rules

• If there are two or more boys in a sentence, you cannot use he or him in the next sentence.
• If there are two or more girls in a sentence, you cannot use she or her in the next sentence.
• If there are two or more things in a sentence, you cannot use it in the next sentence.

VERBS
• Verbs show action or a state of being. Verbs are the engines that power sentences. Without a verb, a sentence can go nowhere. Every sentence MUST have a verb!!!
• Action verbs: walk, run, jump, soar, whisper, stomp, tattle, spend, sing…
• Action verbs tell something you can do, like “sleep” (even if it isn’t very active).

State-of-Being Verbs
• State-of-being verbs are the form of the verb “be.”
• Am, is, are, was, were, has been, will be and have been

HELPING VERBS
• Helping verbs “help” action verbs to be in the correct tense. Forms of “be” are often helping verbs if they are paired with an action verb.
• Helping verbs: has, have, had, can, could, would, should, will, shall, may, might, must, did, do, does.
• We can graduate. He has been learning.• We have learned a lot. They can dance.• We will have learned a lot.

Helping Verbs/Sate-of-Being Verbs
• When a state-of-being verb is with an action verb, it becomes a helping verb.
• He is cute (“is” is a state-of-being verb).
• He is dancing (now “is” is a helping verb).
• She was excited (“was” is a state-of-being verb)
• She was dancing (now “was” is a helping verb).

Finding Verbs
• In order to find the verb in a sentence, using the “time change” method always works.
• By saying yesterday, every day, and tomorrow at the beginning of a sentence, the verb will change automatically. Remember it as the YET (Yesterday, Every day, Tomorrow) method.
![Page 17: PARTS OF SPEECH. NOUNS Nouns are namers. Nouns name people, places, things, animals and ideas. The teacher dashed into the room. Scott is a writer. The](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56649cce5503460f9499a44f/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Examples of Time Change
• Listen for the word or words that change when the time is changed. That word is the verb:
• Yesterday: Steve ate a taco.• Every day: Steve eats a taco.• Tomorrow: Steve will eat a taco.• Yesterday: Jill was happy.• Every day: Jill is happy.• Tomorrow: Jill will be happy.

ACTIVE vs PASSIVE VERBS
• Verbs can be active or passive. Sometimes this is called active or passive voice.
• Active verbs (or voice) put the person (or thing) doing the action in charge: Connie passed the test.
• With passive verbs (or voice), the subject receives the action: The test was passed by Connie.
• Hint: Use the active voice in your writing.

• If an interjection isn’t a strong emotion, it can go before a regular sentence followed by a comma:
• Good grief, Charlie Brown missed the ball.• Hey, that’s a great idea.
