D8. Identifying non-finite verbs
Divide the class into six teams. Your teacher will read out some sentences one by one. Taking
turns, each team has to identify the non-finite verb in each sentence. You also have to identify its
form correctly. Each correct answer will fetch you two points. If a team gets an answer wrong,
another team can attempt and get one point for the correct answer. The team with the maximum
points at the end of two rounds wins the game.
Use the following table that shows the different forms of non-finite verbs for reference.
