Instructional Ideas
  • Provide this at the beginning of the year for reference or hand it out when you go over these verb tenses as a class
  • When you first hand this out, have learners underline or highlight the verbs in each sentence and point out the different parts (the endings, participles, etc.)
Classroom Considerations
  • Your class will need to know what a participle is in order to fully understand the definitions
  • This is just a reference page and does not provide any activities
Pros
  • The tenses are clearly spelled out
  • Learners will appreciate the example sentences 
Cons
  • None
