Today with Miss Bennett we were working on changing verbs into the past tense using three different rules.

1. If the root verb has a long vowel sound we add ‘ed’.

e.g. look – looked

2. If the root verb has a short vowel sound we double the last letter then add ‘ed’.

e.g. tap – tapped

3. If the root verb already ends in ‘e’ we just add ‘d’.

e.g. please – pleased

These rules are really tricky to remember in our writing, here are some activities we did to practise.  Maybe you could try some at home?
