⚡ The 'Past' Pattern

Look at how the story tells us things that already happened. We change the action word to show it is finished.

The Rule: Add -ed to the end of the word.

  • meet → meeted (Wait! This one is special: met)
  • want → wanted
  • protest → protested
  • talk → talked

🛠️ Useful 'People' Words

In this text, we see different groups of people. Use these to describe who is in your story:

  • Experts → People who know a lot about one thing.
  • Musicians → People who play music.
  • Students → People who go to school.

💡 Simple Logic: 'Safe' vs 'Trouble'

Two opposite ideas from the text:

  • Safe →\rightarrow No danger. (Example: Australia is a safe place.)
  • In trouble →\rightarrow Having a problem. (Example: The children are in trouble.)
