About Build-a-Skill Instant Books:Verb Forms
This book features commonly used verbs in fun and easy-to-make instant books. Children will make fl ip books, strip books, mini books, and more! As children read and reread their instant books, they will improve their understanding of verbs and increase their reading, writing, and spelling skills.

Use the instant books to practice skills or introduce new ones. Directions for making the instant books appear on pages 3–4.

Most of the instant books in this resource require only one or two pieces of paper. Copy the pages on white copy paper or card stock, or use colored paper to jazz up and vary the formats. Children will love personalizing their instant books by coloring them, adding construction paper covers, or decorating them with collage materials such as ribbon and stickers. Customize the instant books by adding extra pages or by creating your own word cards using the reproducible on page 30.
Children can make instant books as an enrichment activity when their regular classwork is done, as a learning center activity during guided reading time, or as a homework assignment. Have children place completed instant books in their classroom book boxes and then read and reread the books independently or with a reading buddy. After children have had many opportunities to read their books in school, send the books home for extra skill-building practice.
Directions for Making the Instant BooksThere are fi ve basic formats for the instant books in this guide. The directions appear below and on the next page for quick and easy reference. The directions are written to the child, in case you would like to send the bookmaking activities home as homework. Just copy the directions and attach them to the instant book pages.
Strip Book, pages 5, 16, 17
Circle the verbs. Write them on the lines.1.
Complete the last page of the book.2.
Cut out the strips and put them in order.3.
Staple the book on the left.4.
Hint! Use the word cards on pages 28–29 with the instant books on page 27 to introduce the concept of the past tense of irregular verbs. Each card presents the present and past tenses of an irregular verb. As a rule of thumb, 6–10 cards can easily be stapled onto each instant book.
