Show Answer Key & Explanations Step-by-step solution for: Action Verbs online exercise for Grade 2
Explanation:
We need to fill in each blank with the correct action verb from the word bank:

Word bank:
kick, play, catch, sing, jump, dance, hit, built, take, run

Let’s go sentence by sentence and choose the best verb based on meaning and grammar.

1. “We ________ the football on the field.”
→ We usually *play* football (or *kick* it, but “play football” is the standard phrase).
play

2. “Can you ________ the ball?”
→ You *catch* a ball (when someone throws it to you), or *hit* it — but “catch the ball” is common in questions like this.
Also, “Can you catch the ball?” makes perfect sense.
catch

3. “Pam can ________ very fast.”
→ To move quickly on foot: *run*.
run

4. “Don ________ over the rock.”
→ Jumping *over* something is natural. *Jump* fits.
jump

5. “Sam ________ the baseball.”
→ With baseball, you *hit* it with a bat.
hit

6. “Mary and Paul ________ nice photos with their cameras.”
→ You *take* photos.
take

7. “My dad ________ a bird house.”
→ To construct something = *built* (past tense of build). The sentence doesn’t use “did” or “is”, so simple past is needed.
built

8. “Mike ________ to junkanoo music.”
→ You *dance* to music.
dance

9. “Lisa ________ happy birthday to Don.”
→ You *sing* “Happy Birthday”.
sing

10. “Let’s ________ basketball!”
→ We *play* basketball.
play

Now double-check all:
1. play
2. catch
3. run
4. jump
5. hit
6. take
7. built
8. dance
9. sing
10. play

All fit grammatically and logically.

Final Answer:
1. play
2. catch
3. run
4. jump
5. hit
6. take
7. built
8. dance
9. sing
10. play
