This Class 2 worksheet helps young learners understand and use action verbs in the present tense to describe actions happening now. Students explore how action words work in everyday sentences by identifying, choosing, completing, and rewriting verbs correctly. With a blend of multiple-choice questions, true and false statements, fill-in-the-blanks, sentence rewriting, and paragraph completion, children learn to use present tense verbs naturally while strengthening their grammar foundation.
Learning to use present tense action verbs correctly helps children talk about daily routines and ongoing actions clearly. This concept is important in Grade 2 because:
1. It helps children identify actions that are happening now or regularly.
2. It builds correct sentence structure using verb forms like runs, eats, plays, and writes.
3. It prevents confusion between past and present actions.
