CARD: To form the simple past tense of regular verbs, add **-ed** or **-d**.
{We walked to class yesterday.}
{He walked to class yesterday.}
{play} -> {played}
{walk} -> {walked}
{close} -> {closed}
{study} -> {studied}

CARD: Pronounce regular past tense endings in one of three ways: **/d/**, **/t/**, or **/ɪd/**.
{answered}
{asked}
{corrected}

SUMMARY:

|---|---|
| Simple Present: | We walk to class every day. |
| Simple Past: | We walked to class yesterday. |
| Simple Present: | He walks to class every day. |
| Simple Past: | He walked to class yesterday. |

**1. Spelling: verb + -ed = simple past**

| |
|---|
