Title - Linking Verbs
By - Veronica Falzone
Primary Subject - Language Arts
Secondary Subjects - Music
Grade Level - 6-8

Using a song is a quick way to teach students linking verbs. Sometimes I have the students create their own "linking verb" song by having them fit the most common linking verbs into a familiar tune.

When short on time, I teach them this song instead. Sing it to the tune of "London Bridge is Falling Down"

am, are, is, was, were, (and) be,
forms of be,
forms of be,
taste, smell, sound, seem, look, feel, say
become, grow, appear, remain.
