*ACTIVE vs. PASSIVE*

Write two sentences using the word steal.

In the first sentence, use the word in the active voice; in the second sentence, use it in the passive voice.

Well done, Julie.

Good try, Annie. You got the passive voice. But you didn't use "steal" in the passive. You used "see" instead.

Consider: "Money was being stolen from her purse."
