Problem Overview:
The task involves identifying the correct forms of verbs in the past, present, and future tenses for three given verbs:
to walk,
to run, and
to dance. The worksheet provides examples of sentences using these verbs in different tenses to help guide the solution.
Solution:
#### Step 1: Understand the Tenses
-
Past Tense: Refers to actions that have already happened.
-
Present Tense: Refers to actions happening now or regularly.
-
Future Tense: Refers to actions that will happen later.
#### Step 2: Analyze the Examples Provided
The worksheet gives examples for each verb in different tenses. Let's break them down:
##### Verb:
to walk
- Past: "He walked to the store."
- Present: "He is walking to the park."
- Future: "He will walk home after school."
##### Verb:
to run
- Past: "She ran to catch the bus."
- Present: "She is running faster than anyone."
- Future: "She will run at the track meet this weekend."
##### Verb:
to dance
- Past: "They danced all night."
- Present: "They are dancing a waltz."
- Future: "They will dance at the ball."
#### Step 3: Fill in the Table
Using the examples provided, we can fill in the table with the correct forms of the verbs in the past, present, and future tenses.
| Verb | Past | Present | Future |
|------------|-------------|-----------------|-----------------|
| to walk | walked | is walking | will walk |
| to run | ran | is running | will run |
| to dance | danced | are dancing | will dance |
Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{
\begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|}
\hline
\text{Verb} & \text{Past} & \text{Present} & \text{Future} \\
\hline
\text{to walk} & \text{walked} & \text{is walking} & \text{will walk} \\
\hline
\text{to run} & \text{ran} & \text{is running} & \text{will run} \\
\hline
\text{to dance} & \text{danced} & \text{are dancing} & \text{will dance} \\
\hline
\end{array}
}
\]
Explanation:
-
Past Tense: For regular verbs, the past tense is formed by adding "-ed" (e.g., "walked," "ran," "danced"). Some verbs are irregular (e.g., "ran" instead of "runned").
-
Present Tense: For the present tense, use the base form for singular subjects (e.g., "walks") or add "are/is" for plural/singular subjects (e.g., "is walking," "are dancing").
-
Future Tense: The future tense is formed by using "will" followed by the base form of the verb (e.g., "will walk," "will run," "will dance").
This approach ensures accuracy and consistency in identifying verb forms across different tenses.
