What is the first step used to locate the direct and indirect objects Of a sentence?

The first step is to identify the verb or verbs, a sentence can have more than one verb and each may have a direct and an indirect object.The direct object receives the direct act of the verb:Mom baked cookies. (The cookies were bakedby mom. Cookies is the direct object of the verb baked.)Mom baked us some cookies. (Did mom bake us or did mom bake cookies? The direct object is still cookies, the word 'us' is the indirect object, 'Mom baked cookies for us.')Mom baked cookies and poured us some milk. (Two verbs, two direct objects, and one indirect object.)Easier to see when broken down: Mom baked cookies. Mom poured milk. Mom poured milk for us.Many sentences can be much more complicated, but if you can identify the verb or verbs, even those can be broken down to the core elements to identify the individual parts.
