Simple Present Tense worksheet with fill-in-the-blank sentences and a honeycomb theme.

To solve this worksheet, we need to fill in the blanks using the words provided in the list at the top. The key rule for the Simple Present Tense is:

* If the subject is I, You, We, or They (or plural nouns like "Birds"), use the base verb (e.g., *play*).
* If the subject is He, She, It (or singular nouns like "My mom," "The sun," "The cat"), add an -s or -es to the verb (e.g., *plays*).

Let's look at each sentence one by one:

1. Subject: "I" → Use base verb.
* Context: "...with my toys every day."
* Word choice: play fits best.
* Result: I play with my toys every day.

2. Subject: "My mom" (She) → Add -s.
* Context: "...yummy food for me."
* Word choice: cooks fits best.
* Result: My mom cooks yummy food for me.

3. Subject: "I" → Use base verb.
* Context: "...to draw colorful pictures."
* Word choice: like fits best (meaning enjoyment).
* Result: I like to draw colorful pictures.

4. Subject: "The sun" (It) → Add -s.
* Context: "...bright in the sky."
* Word choice: shines fits best.
* Result: The sun shines bright in the sky.

5. Subject: "We" → Use base verb.
* Context: "...breakfast in the morning."
* Word choice: eat fits best.
* Result: We eat breakfast in the morning.

6. Subject: "Birds" (They/Plural) → Use base verb.
* Context: "...sweet songs in the trees."
* Word choice: sing fits best.
* Result: Birds sing sweet songs in the trees.

7. Subject: "I" → Use base verb.
* Context: "...my teeth before bed."
* Word choice: brush fits best.
* Result: I brush my teeth before bed.

8. Subject: "My dog" (He/It) → Add -s.
* Context: "...when he sees me."
* Word choice: barks fits best.
* Result: My dog barks when he sees me.

9. Subject: "I" → Use base verb.
* Context: "...and [run] in the playground." (Note: The sentence likely implies two actions or just movement).
* Word choice: Looking at the remaining words (*jump, run*), "jump and run" is a common phrase. Let's use jump.
* Result: I jump and [run] in the playground. *(Note: The word 'run' is missing from the blank structure but implied or perhaps the blank covers both concepts, but 'jump' is the distinct action left).* Let's re-read carefully. "I ____ and in the playground." This sentence structure is slightly odd in the original image, possibly missing a word like "run". However, based on the list, jump is the best fit for physical activity here alongside running. Let's assume the sentence meant "I jump and run..." or simply "I jump...". Given the list has "run" and "jump", and sentence 10 needs a verb for a cat, let's look at #10 first.

10. Subject: "The cat" (It) → Add -s.
* Context: "...on the cozy mat."
* Word choice: sleeps fits best.
* Result: The cat sleeps on the cozy mat.

Now back to #9. We have used: play, cooks, like, shines, eat, sing, brush, barks, sleeps.
Remaining words from the list: jump, run.
Sentence 9 says: "I ____ and in the playground."
This looks like a typo in the worksheet itself (missing the word "run" after "and"). However, if we must pick one word from the list for the blank, jump makes sense as an action done in a playground. Or perhaps the sentence is "I run and [jump] in the playground"? Usually, you jump *and* run. Let's look at the grammar. "I" takes the base form. Both *jump* and *run* are base forms.
Let's check if "run" fits better elsewhere? No.
Let's check if "jump" fits better elsewhere? No.
Common phrase: "Jump and run". If the text says "I ____ and in the playground", it's grammatically broken. But assuming the student needs to fill the blank with an action verb: jump is a very strong candidate for playground activities. Let's look at the list again: `barks, shines, sing, cooks, play, eat, jump, run, brush, like, sleeps`.
Wait, did I miss one?
1. play
2. cooks
3. like
4. shines
5. eat
6. sing
7. brush
8. barks
9. ?
10. sleeps

Leftovers: jump, run.
Sentence 9: "I ____ and in the playground."
If the sentence was "I run and jump in the playground", there would be two blanks. There is only one.
Is it possible sentence 9 is "I run in the playground"? The word "and" is confusing.
Let's look at sentence 1 again: "I play with my toys".
Let's look at sentence 9 again. Maybe the word "run" is part of the sentence structure that got cut off? "I jump and run in the playground"? That makes sense. So the blank is jump.

Let's double check.
List:
- barks (used in 8)
- shines (used in 4)
- sing (used in 6)
- cooks (used in 2)
- play (used in 1)
- eat (used in 5)
- jump (likely 9)
- run (unused? Or maybe 9 is run?)
- brush (used in 7)
- like (used in 3)
- sleeps (used in 10)

If I put run in 9: "I run and in the playground." Still weird.
If I put jump in 9: "I jump and in the playground." Still weird.
However, often "jump and run" go together. If the worksheet meant "I jump and run", but only gave one blank, it's an error. But usually, you fill the blank with the first action. Let's assume the answer is jump or run. Let's look for clues. Is there any other place for "run"? No.
Actually, looking closely at the image text for #9: "I ____ and in the playground." It is highly probable the word "run" was accidentally omitted from the printed text after "and". Therefore, the blank is likely jump. ("I jump and [run] in the playground").

Let's verify the subjects and verbs one last time.
1. I play (Correct)
2. Mom cooks (Correct - singular)
3. I like (Correct)
4. Sun shines (Correct - singular)
5. We eat (Correct)
6. Birds sing (Correct - plural)
7. I brush (Correct)
8. Dog barks (Correct - singular)
9. I jump (Correct - base form)
10. Cat sleeps (Correct - singular)

The word run is left over. It is possible #9 is "I run and [jump]..." or vice versa. Without the second verb printed, it's ambiguous, but jump is a very standard playground verb. I will provide jump for #9, but note that run is also a valid verb for "I". Given the alphabetical order of the list isn't followed, and no other constraints, either could technically work grammatically for "I", but contextually "jump" feels right for a specific playground action paired with the implicit "run".

Actually, let's look at the list again. `jump, run`.
If I swap them?
If 9 is run: "I run and..."
If 9 is jump: "I jump and..."
There is no strict logical way to distinguish without the full sentence, but typically worksheets might pair "jump and run". I will stick with jump for the blank.

Final Answer:
1. play
2. cooks
3. like
4. shines
5. eat
6. sing
7. brush
8. barks
9. jump
10. sleeps
