You're asked to
"Find a Verb" and
"Colour the lollies with the verbs".
Let’s break this down step by step:
---
✔ What is a VERB?
A
verb is a word that describes an
action,
state, or
occurrence. In simple terms, it’s a word that tells us what someone or something
does (e.g., run, jump, eat, think).
Examples: *jump*, *run*, *swim*, *sit*, *clap*
---
🍬 Let’s examine each word on the lollies:
1.
bag → noun (a thing you carry stuff in)
✘
2.
jump → verb (to leap into the air)
✔
3.
cat → noun (an animal)
✘
4.
ten → number / adjective (quantity)
✘
5.
hop → verb (to jump on one foot)
✔
6.
skip → verb (to move lightly, often while jumping)
✔
7.
sit → verb (to rest on your bottom)
✔
8.
cut → verb (to divide with a knife or scissors)
✔
9.
run → verb (to move quickly on foot)
✔
10.
pin → can be noun (a small sharp object) or verb (to fasten with a pin) — but here, likely noun
✘ *(Context matters — if it’s “pin a note”, it’s a verb, but as standalone, it’s more commonly a noun)*
11.
swim → verb (to move through water)
✔
12.
clap → verb (to hit hands together)
✔
13.
lip → noun (part of the mouth)
✘
14.
ant → noun (an insect)
✘
15.
dig → verb (to make a hole in the ground)
✔

🎨 So, the VERBS to colour are:
✔ jump
✔ hop
✔ skip
✔ sit
✔ cut
✔ run
✔ swim
✔ clap
✔ dig
*(Note: “pin” is ambiguous, but since this is for young learners, we’ll treat it as a noun unless context suggests otherwise.)*

🖍️ Final Answer:
Colour these lollies:
- jump
- hop
- skip
- sit
- cut
- run
- swim
- clap
- dig
These are all
verbs — words that describe actions!
---
✔ Tip for kids: Ask yourself: “Can I DO this?” If yes → it’s probably a verb!
Example: Can I JUMP? Yes → verb. Can I BAG? Not really — you can *carry* a bag, but “bag” itself isn’t an action.
Happy colouring! 🍭
