the two sentences. The students will analyze the two sentences’ structure they will

more sentences in active voice, and then the student will come up with a
generalization about the structure of the active voice.

sentences, the students will try to move the puzzle pieces from the active voice to
the passive voice. the teacher will give three more sentences, now in the passive
