Verb Makeover Lab

This worksheet challenges students to rewrite sentences by transforming action verbs into linking verbs or vice versa. Learners analyze each original sentence, identify the verb type, and compose a new version that retains logical meaning. This “makeover lab” approach encourages flexible thinking about language and structure. Students strengthen their grasp of verb usage, enhance sentence fluency, and learn how word choice affects tone and meaning.
