Verbs Anchor Chart – Grammar Reference for K–3

A three-chart verb-tense reference tracks five action words — jump, help, skip, hop, and climb — across past, present, and future form, showing the -ed, -s/-es, -ing, and will-plus-verb patterns that build each tense. The first chart is fully filled in for direct reference or classroom display. The second repeats the same layout with key endings blanked out for students to complete themselves. The third chart is left entirely blank, giving a template for building a matching drill around a different verb list.
