MC... I posted this below, but I wasn't sure that you would see it.
MC - Active Voice... the subject ->does something (verb) to an object ( Direct object.
Joe -> hit -> ball. The action flows from to subject to something.
Passive voice - The subject <- recieves the action (verb)
The ball <- was hit. CLUE : there is always a being verb + the main verb.
Active means someone is doing something to something.
Passive means that the VERB is doing all the work.
If you have, to act it out... that is what I had my classes do. <G>
Thanks guru!!
