About this resource
Description
This verb fill in the blank worksheet helps third graders find action verbs and use them correctly in sentences. A verb tells what someone or something does, and its tense tells when the action happens. Knowing how to spot a verb and choose the right tense makes student writing clear and easy to follow.
In this printable verb fill in the blank worksheet, students work through two sections. In the first section, each sentence has three words printed above it: a noun, an adjective, and one action verb. Students pick the verb and write it in the blank to finish the sentence. In the second section, each sentence has an underlined verb in the wrong tense. Students use time clues such as yesterday, every Saturday, and tomorrow to choose the correct past, present, or future verb from a word box and write it on the line. A colorful train illustration and an answer key on page two make the sheet easy to use and check.
What’s Included
- Four sentences where students choose the action verb from a noun, an adjective, and a verb
- A word box with past, present, and future tense verbs
- Four sentences where students correct the verb tense using a time clue
- A complete answer key on page two
Why This Worksheet Helps Kids
- Sorting a verb from a noun and an adjective builds a strong sense of the parts of speech.
- Time clues show students how writers signal when an action happens.
- Practicing past, present, and future tense in one place prepares students for third grade grammar standards.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Before students begin, act out a few verbs together and ask whether each action happened yesterday, happens every day, or will happen tomorrow. After the worksheet, have students write one sentence of their own for each tense and circle the time clue. This 3rd grade verbs worksheet works well as a grammar warm-up, a small group lesson, or extra homework practice.
