Action-to-Linking Flip Answer Key

Students read sentences with action verbs and rewrite them by replacing the action verb with a suitable linking verb. The goal is to maintain the original meaning while showing how linking verbs can express states of being. This rewriting exercise encourages grammatical flexibility and demonstrates how verb choice alters sentence tone and function.
