Most teachers describe verbs as “action” words, but what about verbs like “is”, “believe,” and “seem?” This presentation will examine a functional approach to verbs that identifies categories like sensing verbs, relating verbs, and saying verbs and describes the way these verbs are used in different text types. Examples and tools for using these concepts to help students understand and create texts will be a focus of the session.
