A verb is a word that shows action or a state of being. Let's practice finding and using autumn-themed verbs!

Part 1: Falling for Verbs

Read each sentence below. Find the action verb and draw a circle around it.

• 1. Crisp, colorful leaves fall from the tall trees.
• 2. We carve silly faces on the bright orange pumpkins.

• 4. The chilly wind blows through the corn maze.
• 5. I wear my coziest sweater when it is cool outside.
• 6. My friends and I jump in the big pile of leaves.

Part 2: Pumpkin Patch Verb Sort

Read the words in the word bank. Decide if each word is an Action Verb (something you can do) or a Linking Verb (links the subject to a description, like is, are, was, were). Write each verb in the correct pumpkin patch box below.
