[Use to review negative verb formation. First hand out sheet where students practice forming negative verbs. Go over as a class and write the correct negative forms on the board. Hand out song sheet for "You Don't Own Me" by Lesley Gore. Students have to listen to the song and write in the correct words in the blank (all examples of negative verbs.) For lower level students, I usually play the song twice, and the second time I inform them that all the words they'll need are already on the board.]
Look at the sentences, and in each blank
write in the negative form of the verb.
Say
|
you
love me.
|
Tell
|
me how
you feel.
|
Put
|
the
baby down.
|
Try
|
to eat
this food.
|
I
|
own
|
a dog.
|
I
|
can go
|
to the
movies.
|
I'm
|
a
teacher.
|
Tie
|
your
shoe.
|
Next, listen to the song and write in the missing
verbs.
