Tenses of Verbs worksheet for students to identify past, present, and future tense in sentences.

Let’s go through each sentence one by one and figure out if it’s talking about something that already happened (past), is happening now or usually happens (present), or will happen later (future).

We look at the verb in each sentence — especially words like “wore,” “will pay,” “cares,” etc. — to decide the tense.
