Why get the bundle
- The bundle gives repeated practice, so strong verbs move from the cards into children's own stories.
The problem
'Said loudly' when 'shouted' was right there
Second and third graders lean on 'said' and 'walked' plus an adverb. Stronger verbs pack the same meaning into one word.
Two words where one will do
'Walked slowly' and 'said quietly' are fine, but 'strolled' and 'whispered' say it better.
Vocabulary gap
Children know the weak word and the idea, but not the precise verb that replaces them.
Close but off
Shout, cry and yell are near each other. Picking the one that matches the meaning needs care.
Each card shows a verb plus an adverb, 'said loudly,' and the child picks the single verb that means the same, such as 'shouted.'

Questions
Before you buy.
Do kids write their own?
They choose from options. The next step is replacing a weak verb in their own writing.
What formats are there?
Task cards, clip cards, flash cards, an assessment and a Google Slides deck.
How do I get the file?
The download link appears right after checkout and lands in your inbox at the same time. One PDF with 12 pages. No account needed.
Can I print it more than once?
Yes. One teacher or one household can print unlimited copies for their own students, this year and next.
Will it print in color?
The pages are designed to print in black and white, so they print clean on any home or school printer and do not eat a cartridge.
What if it isn’t right for us?
Email support@pencillane.com within 30 days and we refund the full $1. No form, no questions.
