Created by: Tamara V. Russell
Objectives

• Students will form the past of verbs ending in a consonant
and y of verbs ending in one vowel followed by one
consonant.
Warm-up
Which verb below shows present
time? Which verb shows past
time?
“Hooray, a piñata!” Samson
clapped his hands. “I love
piñatas!”
-from Hooray, a Piñata! by Elisa
Kleven
Lesson
You can make most verbs show past time just by adding –ed. However, the
spelling of some verbs changes in other ways when you add –ed.
Some verbs end with e. Drop the e and add –ed.
race + ed = raced
joke + ed = joked
Some verbs end with a consonant and a y. Change the y to i when you add –ed.
cry + ed = cried
worry + ed = worried
Some verbs end with one vowel followed by one consonant. Double the
consonant and add –ed.
stop + p + ed = stopped
hug + g + ed = hugged
