Let's solve the
Verb Tenses Worksheet step by step. The task is to write the
past,
present, and
future tenses of each given verb.
---
🔹 Understanding the Tenses:
-
Past Tense: Action that already happened.
- Regular verbs usually add
-ed (e.g., *hopped*).
- Irregular verbs have unique past forms (e.g., *went*, *wrote*).
-
Present Tense: Action happening now.
- For most verbs: base form or adds
-s/-es for third person singular (e.g., *he hops*).
- Here, we’ll use the
present continuous form (as shown in the example: *is hopping*) to show ongoing action.
-
Future Tense: Action that will happen.
- Usually uses
"will + base verb" (e.g., *will hop*).

✔ Notes:
- All verbs are regular except
"write" →
wrote (irregular past).
- For present tense, we use
"is + present participle" (e.g., *is writing*) as per the example (*is hopping*), which emphasizes ongoing action.
- Future tense follows
"will + base verb" pattern.
