Yes, that's right! Each phrase begins with a verb; an imperative or bossy verb. These verbs instruct and command someone to do something. Sentences that begin with an imperative verb are called commands. We use them in instructional writing.
Today we are going to be revisiting and building our understanding of commands. Download the PowerPoint using the link below or use the slideshow feature to view the slides.
