What is an imperative verb?

Before you use this imperative verbs KS2 PowerPoint, it’s important to remember that not all verbs are imperative. Imperative verbs specifically give commands or instructions and can end with a full stop or an exclamation mark, depending on the tone. We can use imperative verbs in both positive and negative sentences.

Imperative verbs include action words such as:

  • run
  • jump
  • stop
  • go
  • sit
  • stand
  • listen
  • look

In the sentence ‘Close the door’, close is the imperative verb. Imperative verbs can also be used to persuade, such as ‘Join our club!’.

Before teaching this lesson, pupils need to have a good grasp of the following terminology: verb, noun, adjective, sentence.
