Tenses :)
A tense tells us when
something happened
We have three tenses:1. Past tense
2. Present tense3. Future tense
Past tense
When something has already happened, we say it is in the past!
Present tense
When something is happening right now,
we say it is in the present!
Future tense
When something will happen. It is yet to
happen. We say it is in the future!
To change a sentences
tense, we only change the
verb.
A verb is a doing word!
Past tense
to change the verb in a sentence to past tense, we only add -ed.
For example: The word “play” in past tense will be “played”
We add “ed” to the end of the word.
Remember we only change the VERB!!!!!

We added “ed” to wash because it has already happened.
