Tenses in Verbs Worksheet: Tick & Write the Correct Option!
This worksheet has children ages 4-6 practice identifying whether a sentence describes a past, present, or future action, ticking the correct verb tense option and then writing it into the sentence. Distinguishing between tenses is a core grammar skill that helps children eventually narrate their own experiences accurately, whether describing something that already happened or something they plan to do.

How to use this worksheet
Read each sentence together and talk about whether the action already happened, is happening now, or hasn't happened yet. Have your child look at the verb tense options provided and tick the one that correctly matches the sentence. Guide them to write the chosen verb form into the blank space, then reread the finished sentence aloud together to double-check it sounds correct.
