Guided Notes

3 key concepts

  • 1

    Verbs that do not follow the regular rules of grammar when changing from present to past tense are called irregular verbs.

  • 2

    Sometimes, changing a vowel changes the tense of the word, like when the word 'come' becomes came or 'begin' becomes began.

  • 3

    Sometimes the whole word changes entirely, like when 'eat' becomes ate, 'be' becomes was or were, or 'go' becomes went.
