Warm up / introduction

Last summer, I visited my grandparents in the countryside. We had a lot of fun. Every morning, I woke up early and helped my grandpa in the garden. We planted tomatoes, cucumbers, and carrots. In the afternoon, I swam in the lake with my cousins. We often played games like hide-and-seek and tag. In the evening, we sat on the porch and watched the stars. It was a wonderful summer.

What is the difference between these two groups of verbs?

visited

helped

planted

played

watched

had

woke

swam

sat

Irregular verbs

Why are they called irregular verbs?

this is because they don't conform to a specific set of rules 

Irregular verbs

Look at the following pairs of irregular verbs, what can you tell?

infinitive	past simple	past participle
to hurt to let	hurt let	hurt let
to build to send	built sent	built sent
to sleep to keep	slept kept	slept kept

Some unique patterns of irregular verbs formation

Sometimes the verb doesn't change                for some verbs, only

ex: to read ----------- read---------read                the vowel changes

Sometimes the final 'd' changes to 't'                       ex--------

ex: to spend ---------- spent ------ spent

for some verbs you add  't' at the end -------- ex-------

for some the vowel changes + t or d ---- ex------

Sometimes the vowel and the ending change ----- ex----
