Do you think doing yoga is worth it?

Let's get up and stretch!

At the end of this lesson, ...

you can use dynamic and state (static) verbs correctly

Get up and let's play a quick game of Simon says!

do regular dynamic actions and then say examples of state verbs (Simon says like / believe / know) = they won't be able to actually do it

What do YOU think is the difference between dynamic and state verbs?

Read and then share answers with your partner (SB, p.6)

Sort the blue verbs into dynamic & state verbs

dynamic: work, ask, listen, speak, wear, (think)

state: think, believe, know, want

what?

dynamic = actief werkwoord = beschrijft een handeling

state = statief werkwoord = beschrijft een toestand of situatie

State verbs

- used in the present simple EVEN if it's happening right now:

I understand this.

- can be used in the continuous - BUT it changes to dynamic!

-e.g. think, have, look:

Do I look good in this dress? = state
What are you looking at? = dynamic

Stative / state verbs include:

Attitude verbs = feelings, emotions, preferences

--> like, hate, love, prefer

Mental / thinking verbs

--> believe, know, need, understand, want, remember, think

Senses --> hear, feel, see...

what?

dynamic = actief werkwoord = beschrijft een handeling

state = statief werkwoord = beschrijft een toestand of situatie
