Key Notes:-
Introduction
- 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).
Understanding -ed and -ing Endings:
- -ed Ending (Past Tense):
- Describes an action that has already happened.
- Example: The boy jumped over the puddle.
- -ing Ending (Present Continuous Tense):
- Describes an action that is happening right now.
- Example: The boy is jumping over the puddle.
How to Match -ed and -ing Sentences to Pictures:
- Look at the Picture:
- Carefully observe what the character in the picture is doing.
- Does the picture show a finished action (past) or an ongoing action (present)?
- Read the Sentence:
- Read the sentence with the verb ending carefully.
- Decide if the sentence describes something happening now (-ing) or something that already happened (-ed).
- Match the Sentence to the Picture:
- Find the picture that matches the action described in the sentence.
- Example:
- Picture: A girl waving her hand.
- Sentence: The girl is waving. → Match!
