Active and passive verbs: Powerpoint and differentiated worksheet
LO: to recognise and use passive verb forms.
Revises the meaning of subject and object; presents passive form of verbs; gives practice in spotting and using passive verbs. Introduces the term "passive voice" (in the powerpoint; not mentioned on the worksheet.)
The worksheets can be used in a lesson or for homework.
The more advanced version (marked "HA") includes an activity that can be offered to quick finishers as an extension: writing a paragraph that includes active and passive-verb sentences.
The lesson is designed for KS3, but should be OK for a year 6 class or a year 5 "top" English set.
