Identify the verb, and decide whether it is past or present tense.

I wrote this as a paired task for use in Y4, but it might be used in other year groups, especially if tweaked. The choice between reasons is intended to encourage children to absorb the language of reasoning, which will help them not just in SPaG tests but across the curriculum. The task is unlikely to take more than a few minutes to complete, so it could be used as a starter, early morning task or part of a lesson.
