Correct sentence:

The forklift carefully carries and stacks building materials.

Why this is correct (explained for a 6-year-old):strong>

  1. Who? The forklift. (That is the thing doing the action.)
  2. What? Carries and stacks building materials. (Two actions: it moves things and puts them on top of each other.)
  3. How? Carefully. (This word tells us how the forklift does the actions.)

You can put the word "carefully" before or after the actions. Both are okay:

  • The forklift carefully carries and stacks building materials.
  • The forklift carries and stacks building materials carefully.

Simple version for a 6-year-old:

The forklift carefully moves and stacks blocks.

Tip to check sentences: Ask: Who? What are they doing? How are they doing it?
