ed endings - firework verbs

A resources linked to bonfire night. The past tense verbs are suitable for a report on fireworks. I made this to reinforce the spelling of words ending in ed. First I used a power point downloaded from this site to share the fact that ed endings can sound like id, d, or t. Then asked the children in small groups, to sort out the words into Venn hoops red, yellow and blue according to the sound made at the end. For this I used the words from the white tables cut into cards. To finish I showed the shaded answers sheets for self assessment.
