Choosing Correct Past Verbs

Students complete each sentence by circling the correct past-tense verb-“was” or “were.” The sentences provide contextual clues that help learners determine subject-verb agreement. This worksheet strengthens grammatical decision-making and reinforces comprehension of singular versus plural noun relationships. Through repetition and contextual application, students develop automaticity in choosing correct verb forms, which supports writing fluency and grammar retention.
