Objective verbs. I use these often - and have my own version - but thought I just had to reblog this for you. I’m not on to SOLO yet.. #toptipsfornewteacher

Angry Verbs!
Teach elementary students about verbs using angry birds!
- Create your angry verbs by writing verbs on angry bird cut outs (leave room for students to later write a sentence).
- Put tape on the back of the angry verbs.
- Write sentences with missing verbs on the board.
- Ask students to the front of the room to place the appropriate angry verbs in the sentences.
- Hand out angry verbs to each student.
- Ask students to write a sentence on their bird using the verb.
- Allow students to colour in their angry verb and place them on the class bulletin board.
You can find the Angry Birds colouring pages here

A clever way to link Nouns and Verbs when using Alliteration. Brilliant.
