Vocabulary Learning
💡 The 'Action' Connection
In this story, we see how to describe things that happened in the past. Look at how the words change:
- Happen → Happened
- Run → Ran
- Hit → Hit (This one stays the same!)
- Go → Went
How to use this: When you talk about yesterday or last month, add -ed to most words.
Example from text: "A big bison was angry. It ran at some children."
Watch out for the 'Odd' words: Some words are rebels and change completely.
Go becomes Went. Example: "Carl went to the hospital."
Quick Tip for A2: To describe a feeling or a state in the past, use was (for one person/animal) or were (for many).
- The bison was angry. $
- The animals were dangerous.
