Grade 8 Quiz Verbs in Active and Passive Voice – L.8.1.B

CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.L.8.1.B focuses on the ability to distinguish between and correctly form verbs in the active and passive voice. In the active voice, the subject of the sentence performs the action denoted by the verb, while in the passive voice, the subject receives the action. Grasping this distinction allows for clearer and more varied expression in writing and speaking.
