Teaching tips & learning objectives

Learning objectives

  • Choose a verb form that agrees with the subject.
  • Recognize third-person singular present-tense forms.
  • Recall irregular past-tense forms and compare complete sentences.

Teaching tips

  • The review sheet is the teaching half of the package — its Mick walks to school against Mick and Aaron walk to school pairing gives students the rule the 120 questions then test

  • The answer sheet slide prints as a Q.1 to Q.15 grid, which lets a whole class record responses while a deck runs on the board

  • Items such as "There ___ no cookies left", "Those scissors ___ blunt" and "Each gift ___ a name on it" turn on subjects students read as the wrong number; they repay discussion rather than silent self-marking

Skills covered

  • Subject-verb agreement in number — items across all eight decks pair a subject with three verb options, as in "Rico ___ a baseball fan" (am / is / are) and "The boots ___ in the truck" (am / was / were).

  • Third-person singular present tense — "Teri ___ across the ice" and "Mr. Torres ___ to Denver twice a month" require the -s form rather than the bare verb or the -ing form.

  • Past-tense agreement — several decks put was against were in the same sentence frame, for example "Pete ___ at the mall last night" and "There ___ a big wave".
