English irregular verbs exercises

The game uses a timer to give an element of challenge to the game. There is also a review screen in which you can see each verb with its past-participle and an image to convey the meaning. This sequence repeats with different sets of content. Finally, for the third task you have to reorder the phrase. The second task requires you to choose the correct word to complete the sentence. In the first task, you simply have to drag the verbs to match present to past tense forms. The language used is quite basic, but I think it covers almost all of the basic past tense verb forms (regular and irregular) and a few more difficult ones. So, this game is really just intended as a tool to practice verbs and sentences in past tense. The concept of past tense is difficult to illustrate visually and really is better explained by a teacher in a classroom. The aim of this game is not to explain or communicate the concept of past tense, rather it is just to practice using past tense. It is intended to be used by ESL (English as a second language) students, to review past participles. This game is for practicing past tense English verbs.
