TeachingProcedures:

Warming up by learning about Passive voice

What does the passive voice look like?

Compare these active sentences and passive voice sentences:

active: The boy ate the apple.

passive: The apple was eaten by the boy.

active: Mary will drive the va n.

passive: The van will be driven by Mary.

Identifying S-V-DO

Only sentences which have a direct object can be made into passive voice sentences.

Only verbs which take a direct object can be used in passive voice

sentences. Let’s look at the sentences we saw above.

The boy ate the apple.

subject=boy, verb=ate, direct object=apple Mary will drive the va n.

subject=Mary, verb=will drive, direct object=van

You can probably identify the verb easily. The subject comes before (to the left of) the verb and the object comes after (to the right of) the verb. Warming up by asking questions
