About this worksheet
Year 5 modal verbs, over three pages. A box lists the nine modal verbs: can, could, will, would, shall, should, may, might and must. Pupils underline the modal verb in ten sentences, such as We might go to the cinema and You must wear a helmet, and circle the main verb that goes with it. Task 2 asks which sentences talk about something that has to happen and which about something that may or may not happen. Page 3 is the key. It follows the England National Curriculum for Year 5 grammar.
