Finding Irregular Verbs Worksheet

Recognize that some verbs do not form the past with -ed

Select the conventional past form of an irregular verb

Reject overgeneralized regular spellings

Have learners use each chosen past form in an original oral sentence.

Sort the verbs by whether the vowel changes, the ending changes, or the word changes another way.

Irregular morphology — past forms are recalled rather than generated by one suffix rule.

Form discrimination — accepted spellings are separated from plausible errors.

Tense use — selected forms represent completed actions.
