Essential Questions
How do we recognize active and passive voice?
What is the importance of recognizing active and passive
voice?
Card Sort Activity
With your partner, read the
sentences on all the cards together.
Some of the sentences are similar in
the way they are written.
Sort the cards into two groups of
sentences whose structures seem
the same.
Card Sort Activity
Discuss with your partners how you
sorted the sentence cards into two
groups.
What was your reasoning?
Be prepared to discuss your
reasoning with the class.
What is the difference between active and passive voice sentences?
Active Voice Passive Voice
The subject of the sentence
does the action.
Examples:
• Sarah danced the polka.
• The building tumbled
down.
• The boy must have eaten
all the candy.
It’s unclear who is doing the action.
The subject is being acted upon by
the verb. Usually has some form
of the “be” verb (am, is, are, was,
etc.).
Examples:
• The polka was danced by Sarah.
• The building is being torn down
by the work crew.
• The candy must have been
eaten.
