Worksheet Description

This engaging activity is designed to help students strengthen their understanding of forming the past tense of verbs with -ed endings and develop their phonics skills by exploring the different sounds associated with -ed endings.

In this worksheet, students will be provided with a list of verbs. Their first task is to change each verb to its past tense by adding the appropriate -ed ending. They will write their answers on the lines provided. This exercise will reinforce their knowledge of regular verb conjugation and enhance their grammar skills.

Next, students will sort the verbs into three columns based on the sound of the -ed ending. They will determine whether the -ed ending sounds like /d/, /t/, or /id/. This activity will sharpen their phonemic awareness and help them recognize the different pronunciations of -ed endings.

By engaging in this worksheet, students will not only practice forming the past tense but also develop their phonics and phonemic awareness. This integrated approach will deepen their understanding of the English language and enhance their overall language skills.
