Teaching tips
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.
Item 6 (tear) offers torn but not tore, so use it to talk about the difference between the past tense and the past participle.
Skills covered
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.
