This mini lesson introduces students to helping verbs. The lesson includes the list of 23 helping verbs, a link to the Helping Verb song (sung to the tune of Jingle Bells), and a breakdown of primary and modal helping verbs. At the end of the lesson are subjects and main verbs for students to create their own sentences using helping verbs to check for understanding
I have created and used this lesson for my on- and above-level fifth graders but it can easily be used in 4th and 6th grades as well.
