Writing

This week’s writing tWritingip comes in the form of a quiz! I memorized the following group of words as a chant in 7th grade English class (thank you Ms. Merkel) and they’ve stuck in my head ever since. What is this group of words called, and what is their job?

IS, AM, ARE, WAS, WERE, BE, BEEN, HAVE, HAD, HAS, WOULD, COULD, SHOULD, MAY, MIGHT, CAN, MUST, DO, DID, DOES, WILL, SHALL.

 

(look for the answer next week in Writing Tip #3)
