2. Activity 2: Verb Charades

   Play a game of verb charades with your family. Act out different actions like running, jumping, or eating, and have your family guess the verb. Keep track of how many verbs you acted out correctly.

3. Activity 3: Sentence Building

   Using the nouns and verbs you found earlier, create simple sentences. For example, "The cat is sleeping" or "I am eating." Write down at least five sentences and read them aloud to your teacher or parent.
