Match the -ed and -ing sentences to the pictures

Key Notes:-

  • Understanding Verb Endings:
  • Verbs can change with endings like -ed and -ing to show different times or ongoing actions.
  • -ed is used to show actions that have already happened (past tense).
  • -ing is used to show actions that are happening right now (present continuous tense).

  1. -ed Ending (Past Tense):
  • Describes an action that has already happened.
  • Example: The boy jumped over the puddle.
  1. -ing Ending (Present Continuous Tense):
  • Describes an action that is happening right now.
  • Example: The boy is jumping over the puddle.

  • Look at the Picture:
  1. Carefully observe what the character in the picture is doing.
  2. Does the picture show a finished action (past) or an ongoing action (present)?
  • Read the Sentence:
  1. Read the sentence with the verb ending carefully.
  2. Decide if the sentence describes something happening now (-ing) or something that already happened (-ed).
  • Match the Sentence to the Picture:
  1. Find the picture that matches the action described in the sentence.
  2. Example:
    • Picture: A girl waving her hand.
    • Sentence: The girl is waving. → Match!

  • For -ed Sentences:
  1. Sentence: The cat jumped off the table.
  • For -ing Sentences:
  1. Sentence: The cat is jumping off the table
