Show Answer Key & Explanations
Step-by-step solution for: Verbs: Past, Present, Future Primary Worksheets | Student Handouts
Let's solve the worksheet step by step.
---
We are given three verbs:
- to walk
- to run
- to dance
For each verb, we need to fill in the Past, Present, and Future tense forms.
---
| Verb | Past | Present | Future |
|------------|------------|--------------|----------------|
| to walk | walked | walks / walk | will walk |
| to run | ran | runs / run | will run |
| to dance | danced | dances / dance | will dance |
> ✔ Explanation:
- Past Tense: Regular verbs add "-ed" (e.g., walk → walked). Irregular verbs like "run" have unique past forms (ran).
- Present Tense: Base form for general present or with "I/you/we/they". Add "-s" for third person singular (he/she/it).
- Future Tense: Use "will + base verb".
---
Now, look at the example sentences and determine the tense of the verb used.
---
#### Verb: to walk
1. He walked to the store.
- Tense: Past
- Reason: "walked" is the past form.
2. He is walking to the park.
- Tense: Present (specifically, present continuous)
- Reason: "is walking" shows an action happening now.
3. He will walk home after school.
- Tense: Future
- Reason: "will walk" indicates a future action.
✔ So, the correct forms are:
- Past: walked
- Present: walking (continuous form)
- Future: will walk
But note: The worksheet asks for the correct form of the verb in the sentence. Since it says "write the correct form", we should use the actual verb form as it appears in the sentence.
So for to walk:
- Past: walked
- Present: walking
- Future: will walk
---
#### Verb: to run
1. She ran to catch the bus.
- Tense: Past
- Verb form: ran
2. She will run at the track meet this weekend.
- Tense: Future
- Verb form: will run
3. She is running faster than anyone.
- Tense: Present (present continuous)
- Verb form: running
✔ So for to run:
- Past: ran
- Present: running
- Future: will run
---
#### Verb: to dance
1. They are dancing a waltz.
- Tense: Present (present continuous)
- Verb form: dancing
2. They danced all night.
- Tense: Past
- Verb form: danced
3. They will dance at the ball.
- Tense: Future
- Verb form: will dance
✔ So for to dance:
- Past: danced
- Present: dancing
- Future: will dance
---
| Verb | Past | Present | Future |
|------------|----------|-------------|--------------|
| to walk | walked | walking | will walk |
| to run | ran | running | will run |
| to dance | danced | dancing | will dance |
---
- This exercise teaches how verbs change form based on time (past, present, future).
- The key is identifying whether the verb is in simple, continuous, or future form.
- Even though "present" can be simple (e.g., "he walks") or continuous ("he is walking"), here the examples use continuous forms, so we use those.
---
✔ Final Note: The student should write the actual verb form used in the sentence (e.g., "walking", not just "walk") in the corresponding box.
