Tense Tracker - Board Game

Tense Tracker is a grammar-based board game that helps Year 4 students practise identifying verb tenses. Students roll the die and move to a base verb square (e.g. "run"). They must then find and place a counter on the correct past tense version in the centre grid (e.g. "ran"). The first to get three past tense matches in a row wins. A mix of regular and irregular verbs provides valuable practise in recognising and applying verb tense rules.
