These posters are great to enhance student writing as they have access to a variety of interesting verbs. When writing imaginative texts, students benefit from exposure to an expanded vocabulary and can use the alternatives to create a clearer, more precise picture in their writing.
This poster pack also includes 4 posters outlining the various types of verbs- doing, saying, thinking and relating.
The Verb posters print out A4 in size (or can be reduced for students to use at their desks).
The Types of Verbs posters print out 2 per A4 page.
