Let’s go step by step to solve each part of the worksheet.

---

Part 1: Crossword – Change the verbs in Past Simple

We need to write the past simple form of these verbs:

- Down:
- 1. take → took
- 2. bring → brought
- 3. shake → shook

- Across:
- 3. speak → spoke
- 4. forget → forgot
- 5. get → got

So, fill the crossword with those words. (Since we can’t draw the grid here, just know these are the correct answers for each clue.)

---

Part 2: Correct the mistakes

These are wrong spellings or forms — let’s fix them:

- ger → get → past: got
- Brogte → bring → past: brought
- Forger → forget → past: forgot
- Take → already base form → past: took
- Shaken → this is past participle → past simple: shook
- Speak → base form → past: spoke

Wait — looking again at the list:

The worksheet says “Correct the mistakes” and gives:

> ger - her - got
> Brogte - broaght - brought
> Forger - furger - forgot
> Take - tusk - toked
> Shaken - shook - shaken
> Speek - speke - spoken

Actually, it seems like they’re giving you three options per verb, and you must pick the correct past simple form.

Let’s check each:

1. ger / her / got → got ✔ (past of “get”)
2. Brogte / broaght / brought → brought ✔ (past of “bring”)
3. Forger / furger / forgot → forgot ✔ (past of “forget”)
4. Take / tusk / toked → none are right? Wait — “take” → past is took. But “toked” is close but wrong. Actually, maybe typo? Should be “took”. Since “toked” isn’t real, perhaps it’s a trick. But based on standard English: took is correct. However, since “toked” is listed, and it’s not correct, maybe the answer is that all are wrong? No — wait, look again:

Actually, re-reading: The instruction says “Correct the mistakes”, and under each group, one is correct.

Looking carefully:

- ger - her - got → got is correct
- Brogte - broaght - brought → brought is correct
- Forger - furger - forgot → forgot is correct
- Take - tusk - toked → Hmm… “Take” is present, “tusk” is nonsense, “toked” is misspelled “took”? Probably meant to be “took”. So took is correct — but it’s written as “toked”? That might be a typo in the worksheet. Let’s assume “toked” = mistake, so correct is took — but since it’s not listed correctly, perhaps the intended correct answer is took, even if misspelled? Wait — no, actually, looking at the pattern, maybe “toked” is supposed to be “took”? Or perhaps it’s “taken”? No — past simple of “take” is “took”.

But in the list, “toked” is probably a typo for “took”. We’ll go with took as correct.

Next:

- Shaken - shook - shaken → “Shaken” is past participle, “shook” is past simple → so shook is correct
- Speek - speke - spoken → “Spoken” is past participle; past simple is “spoke”. None say “spoke”? Wait — “speke” is old spelling? Not modern. “Speek” is wrong. So actually, none are correct? But “spoken” is not past simple. This is confusing.

Wait — let me double-check the original image text:

It says:

> Correct the mistakes
> ger - her - got
> Brogte - broaght - brought
> Forger - furger - forgot
> Take - tusk - toked
> Shaken - shook - shaken
> Speek - speke - spoken

Ah! I think the task is: from each line, choose the CORRECT past simple form.

So:

- Line 1: ger, her, got → got ✔️
- Line 2: Brogte, broaght, brought → brought ✔️
- Line 3: Forger, furger, forgot → forgot ✔️
- Line 4: Take, tusk, toked → “Take” is present, “tusk” is wrong, “toked” is misspelling of “took” → but since “took” isn’t there, perhaps it’s a trick? Wait — maybe “toked” is meant to be “took”? In many worksheets, they include common misspellings. So likely, toked is incorrect, and the correct answer should be took, but it’s not listed. Hmm.

Actually, looking back — perhaps “toked” is a typo and should be ignored. But let’s see the next ones.

Line 5: Shaken, shook, shaken → “shook” is correct past simple ✔️

Line 6: Speek, speke, spoken → “spoken” is past participle, not past simple. Past simple of “speak” is “spoke”. None say “spoke”? “Speke” is archaic. So perhaps this is also a trick? But wait — maybe “speke” is accepted? No, in modern English, it’s “spoke”.

I think there might be typos in the worksheet. But based on standard grammar:

For “Take” → past simple = took
For “Speak” → past simple = spoke

But since “took” and “spoke” aren’t clearly listed, perhaps the worksheet expects:

- For “Take”: since “toked” is closest, but it’s wrong — maybe the answer is that “Take” is the base, and we need to write “took” separately? No, the instruction is to correct the mistakes — meaning pick the correct one from the three.

Perhaps for “Take - tusk - toked”, none are correct, but that can’t be. Another idea: maybe “toked” is meant to be “took”, so we select “toked” as the intended correct answer? That doesn’t make sense.

Let me check online or recall: sometimes worksheets have errors. But to proceed, I’ll assume:

- For “Take”: the correct past simple is took, so if “toked” is a misspelling, we still mark it as the choice? No — better to say the correct form is took, and “toked” is wrong.

This is messy. Let’s look at the last one: “Speek - speke - spoken” — “spoken” is not past simple. So perhaps the worksheet has errors.

But wait — in the first part, they gave examples: “bring/forget/get/shake/take/speak” — so for “speak”, past is “spoke”.

Perhaps in the “correct the mistakes” section, for “Speek - speke - spoken”, the correct past simple is not listed, but “spoken” is often confused. Actually, no — “spoken” is past participle.

I think there might be a mistake in the worksheet. To help the student, I’ll provide the correct past simple forms regardless:

So for correction:

- ger/her/got → got
- Brogte/broaght/brought → brought
- Forger/furger/forgot → forgot
- Take/tusk/toked → took (even though not perfectly listed, “toked” is likely meant to be “took”)
- Shaken/shook/shaken → shook
- Speek/speke/spoken → spoke (but not listed; “spoken” is wrong for past simple)

Given the constraints, I’ll go with what’s logically correct:

Final choices for "Correct the mistakes":

1. got
2. brought
3. forgot
4. took (assuming "toked" is a typo for "took")
5. shook
6. spoke (but since "spoke" isn't listed, and "spoken" is there, perhaps it's a trick — but "spoken" is not past simple. Maybe the worksheet intends "spoke" but wrote "spoken" by mistake. I'll note that.)

To avoid confusion, let's move to the next parts and come back.

Part 3: Fill in the gaps with the right form of the verbs (go / shake / forget / hear / speak / take)

Sentences:

1. Last week my brother ______ a storm.
→ Verb options: go, shake, forget, hear, speak, take
→ “hear a storm” makes sense → heard (past of hear)

2. Mr. Chris ______ his bag yesterday.
→ “forget his bag” → forgot

3. Julie ______ my best two days ago.
→ “speak to someone” → spoke

4. Jane ______ to her friend yesterday.
→ same as above? Or “go to her friend”? But “went” is not in the verb list. Verbs given: go, shake, forget, hear, speak, take
→ “speak to her friend” → spoke — but Julie already used “spoke”? Can reuse? Yes.
Or “go to her friend” → went — but “go” is in the list, past is “went”.
Sentence: “Jane ______ to her friend yesterday.” → likely went (from “go”)

But “go” is in the verb list, so yes.

5. Tom climbed a tree and ______ the branch.
→ “shake the branch” → shook

6. I ______ an e-mail last Sunday.
→ “take an e-mail”? No. “hear an e-mail”? No. “send” not in list. “receive” not in list.
Options: go, shake, forget, hear, speak, take
→ “take an e-mail” doesn’t make sense. “Hear an e-mail”? No.
Perhaps “got” but not in list. Wait — maybe “received” but not available.
Another possibility: “I took an e-mail” — not idiomatic.
Perhaps it’s “I heard about an e-mail”? But sentence says “an e-mail”.
Maybe typo? Or perhaps “I sent” but not in list.
Looking back: verbs are go/shake/forget/hear/speak/take
“Take” could mean “receive” in some contexts? Like “I took a call” — similarly, “I took an e-mail” might be acceptable informally.
Or perhaps it’s “I forgot an e-mail”? Doesn’t fit.
Best guess: took — assuming “take” means receive.

But let’s confirm:

Standard usage: we say “I received an email”, not “took”. But in some dialects, “take” can mean receive. Given the options, took is the only possible choice.

Alternatively, “heard” — “I heard an e-mail” doesn’t make sense.

So I’ll go with took.

Now, listing all:

1. heard
2. forgot
3. spoke
4. went (from “go”)
5. shook
6. took

But “went” is past of “go”, which is in the list, so ok.

Part 4: Write your own sentences. Use Past Simple.

Verbs given:
1. Buy → bought
2. Get → got
3. Forget → forgot
4. Speak → spoke
5. Shake → shook
6. Take → took

Student needs to write one sentence for each.

Example answers:

1. I bought a new book yesterday.
2. She got a gift for her birthday.
3. He forgot his homework at home.
4. They spoke to the teacher after class.
5. The wind shook the windows.
6. We took a photo together.

---

Now, compiling all answers clearly.

First, Crossword answers:

Down:
1. took
2. brought
3. shook

Across:
3. spoke
4. forgot
5. got

(Note: Across 3 is “speak” → spoke, which matches Down 3 “shake” → shook? In crossword, they intersect, but since we don’t have grid, just provide the words.)

Second, Correct the mistakes:

From each line, the correct past simple form is:

- got
- brought
- forgot
- took (assuming "toked" is meant to be "took")
- shook
- spoke (but since "spoke" isn't listed, and "spoken" is, perhaps it's an error — but for accuracy, we'll say "spoke" is correct, so if forced to choose from given, none are perfect, but "spoken" is wrong. To resolve, I'll list the correct forms as per standard English.)

Actually, re-examining the worksheet image description: it says "Correct the mistakes" and lists triples, implying one is correct.

For "Speek - speke - spoken", none are "spoke", so perhaps it's a mistake. But in many such worksheets, "spoken" is incorrectly chosen by students, so the correct answer should be "spoke", but it's not listed. Given that, I'll assume the intended correct answers are:

1. got
2. brought
3. forgot
4. took (with "toked" being a distractor)
5. shook
6. spoke — but since not listed, perhaps the worksheet has "spoke" misspelled as "speke"? Unlikely.

Another thought: in the initial instruction, it says "bring/forget/get/shake/take/speak", so for "speak", past is "spoke". In the correction list, "Speek - speke - spoken", perhaps "speke" is meant to be "spoke"? In old English, "speke" was used, but not now. I think for school level, we should use "spoke".

To practicalize, I'll provide the correct past simple forms for the verbs mentioned:

For the "Correct the mistakes" section, the correct answers are:

- got
- brought
- forgot
- took
- shook
- spoke

Even if not perfectly matching the options, these are grammatically correct.

Third, Fill in the gaps:

1. heard
2. forgot
3. spoke
4. went
5. shook
6. took

Fourth, Write your own sentences:

As above.

Now, for the final answer, since the user didn't specify which part, but the whole worksheet, I'll summarize all answers.

But the instruction is to provide the final answer after reasoning.

Since it's a multi-part task, I'll list all answers clearly.

Final Answer:

Crossword Answers:
Down: 1. took, 2. brought, 3. shook
