Check out my Irregular Past Tense Spelling Game ! I made it because I had always missed something from the ones I found on the net, mainly the amount of words they make you practice. So I decided to make one myself :) You can practise 60 irregular past tense verbs with it. There are 5x12 verbs, each goup is set in a short story. There are 3 or 4 tasks for each group of verbs (16 tasks altogether. Here's how it goes: You must find the present equivalent of the verb in the given sentence. If your answer is right, the verb will disappear. The same, only a bit more difficult: the verb will not disappear, you will only hear a sound if the answer is right You must complete the sentences with the proper past tense verb I have already tested it on some of my students, it seemed to be effective :) Come on, TRY it!
