Subject and Simple Present

Worksheet Description

The worksheet presented is focused on the English present tense, specifically instructing students to observe various images depicting different activities and write sentences using the correct subject and the simple present form of the verb that corresponds to the action being illustrated. There are eight pictures, each requiring the student to deduce the appropriate verb and subject, such as ‘he’ or ‘she’ for individual activities, or ‘they’ for group actions. This format allows for a visual approach to learning verb conjugation and subject-verb agreement in the present tense. The aim is for students to create grammatically correct sentences that describe the ongoing actions in the present tense as shown in the images.

The worksheet is teaching students to accurately identify and use the simple present tense form of verbs in context. It emphasizes the skill of conjugating verbs to match the third person singular subject, which typically involves adding an ‘s’ or ‘es’ to the base form of the verb. By associating verbs with pictures, it also helps students to enhance their vocabulary related to actions. Furthermore, the exercise serves to reinforce the syntax of English sentences, ensuring that students understand the importance of subject-verb agreement and the basics of constructing simple present tense statements.
