Examples: My younger sister found the hidden presents. (found WHAT?) I called Christina later that day. (called WHOM?) My dog Tinker likes a long run. (likes WHAT?) Green: Subject Red: Verb Orange: Direct object

FIND THE DIRECT OBJECT(S)! 1. I usually buy my lunch in the cafeteria. 2. The troop hiked ten miles last week. 3. The rain soaked my jacket. 4.Our teacher showed a film in class. 5. Samantha washed the pots and pans after dinner. 6. Come see the view from here. 7. Carole plays both the piano and the flute.

DON’T BE TRICKED! A direct object is never: Examples: an adverb The noun/pronoun at the end of a prepositional phrase Examples: Dan rode his bike. Dan rode quickly. Dan rode through town. Green: Subject Red: Verb Orange: Direct object Blue: Adverb Yellow: Prepositional phrase

MORE PRACTICE! FIND THE DIRECT OBJECT What answer did you give to Lucy? How many points did Kevin score? Whom did the team choose as captain? Which does do you prefer? Whom did you see there? Whose phone did you borrow? How many books did Tim read? What will you do about your missing keys?

INDIRECT OBJECTS Yes … more objects An indirect object is a noun or pronoun that comes after an action verb and before a direct object. It names the person or thing to which something is given or for which something is done. A sentence cannot have an indirect object unless it has a direct object.

INDIRECT OBJECTS CONTINUED… An indirect object answer the questions To For whom? For what? TIP: Find the direct object first, then ask the appropriate question. TIP: Keep in mind the following order: Subject + Verb + Indirect Object + Direct Object

INDIRECT OBJECT EXAMPLES Josh’s dad told us the story. verb indirect object direct object Mackenzie threw me the ball. verb indirect object direct object The indirect object is between the VERB AND the DIRECT OBJECT!

ANOTHER INDIRECT OBJECT EXAMPLE… Dad offered Hannah and me dinner and a movie. subject verb compound indirect object compound direct object Offered WHAT? - Dinner and a movie Offered dinner and a movie TO WHOM? - Hannah and me

INDIRECT OBJECTS VS. OBJECTS OF PREPOSITIONS An indirect object is NEVER after the preposition to or for in a sentence. Compare: Grandpa bought her a television indirect object direct object Grandpa bought a television for her direct object object of a preposition

FIND THE INDIRECT OBJECT I’ve already sent her two messages. Carried fed her cats tuna. Seth made his mother a solemn promise. Please show me your new video game. The boys gave each other a high-five. The baby sitter told the children bedtime stories. Will you lend him a pencil?
