P4 Building Blocks of English Writing Exercises

Unit 6: Mat and Tense-Switching Suffixes Remember! A suffix on the end of a word changes the meaning of the word. Adding “ED” often makes a verb past tense and adding “ING” often makes a verb progressive.

Observe: Did you circle verbs with suffixes ed or ing?

Practice: Write three sentences describing something you enjoyed doing last summer. Use at least 2 verbs that end in ‘ed’ and 2 that end in ‘ing.’
