Colorful grammar worksheet designed to help students practice choosing the correct irregular verb forms in past and present tense sentences.

You're looking at a worksheet titled “Irregular Verbs” — it’s designed to help learners practice using the correct past tense forms of irregular verbs (verbs that don’t follow the regular “-ed” pattern).

Each sentence has a blank, and you must choose the correct past tense form from three options listed below it. The correct choice is usually the one that matches the time context (past, present, etc.) and grammatical structure.

Let’s solve each one with an explanation:

---

1. I ________ to the supermarket two hours ago.

- go → present
- goes → 3rd person singular present
- ✔ went → past tense → *Correct!* “Two hours ago” = past time.

---

2. Sarra and Sali always ________ the bus to go to school.

- take → base form
- takes → 3rd person singular present
- ✔ took → past tense → Wait! “Always” means habitual action → present simple → takes? But wait — Sarra and Sali are plural → so should be take?
But look: options are *take, takes, took*. Since “always” = present habit → subject is plural → take is correct.

✔ take — because “Sarra and Sali” = plural → present simple → “take”

*(Note: Some worksheets may have errors or expect “took” by mistake — but grammatically, “take” is correct here.)*

Wait — let’s double-check the image. It says:
> Sarra and Sali always ________ the bus to go to school.
Options: take / takes / took

Since “always” = present habit → plural subject → verb = base form → take

✔ take

---

3. Yesterday, my sister ________ home late.

- come → base
- comes → 3rd person present
- ✔ came → past tense → “Yesterday” = past → correct.

---

4. Did you ________ me at the party last weekend?

- see → base
- sees → 3rd person present
- ✔ saw → past tense → after “did”, we use base form? Wait — no!

⚠️ Important: After “Did” (auxiliary for past simple), we use the base form of the verb.

So: “Did you see me...?” — not “saw”.

✔ see

*(This is a common trick question! “Did” already shows past tense, so verb stays in base form.)*

---

5. Jane ________ that I was coming.

- know → base
- knows → 3rd person present
- ✔ knew → past tense → “I was coming” = past → so Jane knew in the past → “knew”

---

6. Peter usually ________ the flu in winter.

- get → base
- gets → 3rd person present
- got → past

“Usually” = present habit → Peter (3rd person) → gets

✔ gets

## 📝 Key Tips:
- Past time words: yesterday, last week, an hour ago → use past tense (e.g., went, saw, knew).
- Present habit words: always, usually, every day, sometimes → use present simple (e.g., takes, gets, tells).
- After “did/didn’t”: always use the base form of the verb (e.g., Did you see? / Didn’t she bring?).
