Rap the verbs
Play a verb rap and have kids act out each action word. Then challenge them to add a helping verb, like "is running" or "will jump." Music makes grammar feel like a game instead of a rule list.
Why it works: a catchy, repeating tune gives the brain a hook to hang words on, so sung text is remembered better (Wallace, 1994).
