Angry Verb Birds


Angry Verb Birds was a super fun activity to review Present, Past, Future Tense Verbs, "be", and helping Verbs.  The students chose their own verbs to write on each pig which coordinated with the various verb types.  Clip art can be easily found online so that the students have a color sheet for each bird.
