Students are instructed to state the helping verb in orally presented
sentences.
First write the helping verbs on the board:
For example,

Is

Are

Am

Does

Then say a sentence with a helping verb.


For example, say: I am hungry. The first student to say the helping verb,
am, gets a point. Increase sentence length to increase complexity.
For a noncompetitive activity, write each word more than once, and
instruct students to work together to eliminate all the words on the board.
