Here is the rewritten paragraph in active voice:
Last summer I painted our house. First, I washed the exterior using warm water and a mild detergent. Then I sealed all of the chinks in the walls with putty. After the putty had dried, I could paint the exterior. I used a latex paint because it is easy to apply and cleans up with water. It took me a whole week to finish this part of the job. I used a color that was very close to the original color. When I finished the job, I felt a great deal of satisfaction. Even my dad said I did a good job.

The document discusses the differences between active and passive voice in sentences. In active voice, the subject performs the action stated by the verb. In passive voice, the subject is the recipient of the action and what was the subject in active voice becomes the agent in passive voice, introduced by "by". The passive voice is formed by using a form of the verb "to be" plus the past participle of the main verb.
This document discusses three types of questions in English - yes/no questions, WH- questions, and tag questions. It provides examples of how to form questions for each type in various tenses, including present, past, future, perfect, continuous and perfect continuous. Yes/no questions typically begin with an auxiliary verb and expect a yes or no answer. WH- questions begin with interrogative words like what, when, where, who, why, how, how much/many and provide more open-ended answers. The document also defines important grammar terms needed to understand questions, such as verbs, nouns, subjects, objects and tenses.
The document discusses the active and passive voice in grammar. In the active voice, the subject performs the action of the verb and can take a direct object. In the passive voice, the subject undergoes the action of the verb. There are two types of passive voice: short passive where the subject or performer is unknown, and long passive where the object becomes the subject of the sentence. The key rules for passive voice are that the subject and object switch places, only the past participle is used as the main verb, and "by" is used to indicate the performer/subject. Auxiliary verbs also change depending on tense in the passive voice.
This document discusses the active and passive voice. It begins by stating the learning objectives of identifying and constructing sentences using the active and passive voices. It then provides examples of news headlines and asks the reader to identify the subject and main verb in each. The document goes on to define the active and passive voices, providing rules and examples for converting between them. It emphasizes that not all sentences can be changed between voices and provides exercises for the reader to identify whether sentences are in the active or passive voice.
The document discusses the different tenses in the English language, including the present simple, present continuous, present perfect, present perfect continuous, and simple past tenses. It provides rules for forming sentences in each tense, including affirmative, negative, and interrogative examples. It also includes exercises for the reader to practice forming sentences in each tense.

This document discusses active and passive voice in verbs. Active voice shows the subject performing the action, as in "Lebron threw the basketball." Passive voice focuses on the object/action and not the subject, as in "The ball was thrown by Lebron." Passive voice is used to hide the subject, emphasize the object, or make information more impersonal, as in news reports. It consists of a form of "to be" plus the past participle of the verb. Questions and negatives are formed by changing the form of "to be" verb according to tense.
The document discusses the difference between active and passive voice in English grammar. In active voice, the subject performs the action of the verb, while in passive voice the subject is acted upon by the verb. Some examples are provided of sentences in both active and passive voice. The document also provides guidance on when to use each voice, noting that active voice is usually preferable but passive voice can be useful in some situations, such as when the recipient of the action is more important than the performer.
The document describes the simple present tense in English. It is used to describe repeated or habitual actions, facts that are always true, and actions that occur regularly. The simple present tense is formed by using the base form of the verb, and adding "s" to verbs in the third person singular. Negative sentences are formed with "don't" or "doesn't" and questions are formed with "do" or "does." Wh-questions use the same structure but start with interrogative words like what, when, where, why, how, which, and who.

The document discusses active and passive sentences, as well as root words, prefixes, and suffixes. Active sentences follow the subject-verb pattern and show what the subject is doing, while passive sentences focus on what happened and can omit or reveal who did the action using "by". Prefixes are added to the beginning of words to change their meaning, and you can determine a prefix's meaning by analyzing words that share it. Suffixes are added to the end of words to change grammar, such as indicating an action or adding an "er" or "est" for comparisons.
The basics of sentences session 9pptx.pptxheathfieldcps1
This document discusses formal and informal language and how it depends on audience and purpose. It explains that formal language is used in school and when writing to unknown people, avoiding contractions and using proper vocabulary and grammar. Standard English should be used in most school writing and unknown audiences to communicate formally. The audience is who is listening or reading, and the purpose is the reason for communicating - to entertain, inform, instruct, persuade or explain - which determines whether language is formal or informal.

1. The basics of sentences
Active and passive: root words, suffixes and prefixes
2. Active sentences
In English, most verbs are ‘active’.
Bob ate the donut.
Kane kicked the football.
The dog bit the postman.
Active verbs are used in the usual pattern of ‘subject’ followed
by verb which tells us what the subject is doing.
3. Passive sentences
In English, we can also use passive verbs.
The donut was eaten.
The football was kicked.
The postman was bitten.
Passive verbs focus on what happened and can hide who did it
- or use ‘by’ to reveal who did the action:
The football was kicked by Kane.
4. Passive sentences
Passive verbs are useful when it doesn’t matter who did the
action:
The flats were built.
The test tube was heated.
It is also useful when building suspense to hide a threat:
The door was opened.
The money was stolen.
5. Root words and prefixes
Prefixes are a group of letters that can be added to the start of
a word to change its meaning.
Kind – unkind
In this case, the root word is ‘kind’. The prefix is ‘un’ and it
changes the meaning.
Happy – unhappy
Fair – unfair
Usual - unusual
6. Root words and prefixes
You can usually work out what a prefix means by collecting
words with the same prefix and thinking about their meaning:
Unacceptable
Unafraid
Unadventurous
Unaided
Unaltered
Unanswered
Unbeatable
Unavailable
Unappreciated
7. Root words and prefixes
You can usually work out what a prefix means by collecting
words with the same prefix and thinking about their meaning:
Submarine
Substandard
Subconscious
Submerge
subterranean
Antifreeze
Antidote
Antivirus
Antisocial
Antonym
8. Root words and suffixes
Suffixes are added to the end of a word to change its grammar.
Quick – quickly
Fast – faster
Jump – jumped
Happy – happiness
Cook – cooking
Wonder – wonderful
Advert – advertise
