To Be Verbs Worksheets | Am, is or are To be Verbs Worksheet - Free Printable

It looks like the worksheet you've uploaded is titled "Am, Is or Are 'To Be' Verbs Worksheet", but there's a mismatch in the instructions.

Issue:

The directions say:
> *"Read each sentence below and circle 'was' or 'were' to complete each sentence correctly."*

However, the example and the options given in each sentence are "am / is / are", not "was / were". This suggests that the worksheet is actually about present tense forms of "to be", not past tense.

So, the correct instruction should be to choose "am", "is", or "are", not "was" or "were".

Let’s solve the worksheet correctly, assuming the intended task is to select the correct present-tense form of "to be".
