10 pages of templates. Verbs include: drive, say, fly, wear, ride, swim, eat, but, see and write. This resource is a little more challenging from my rainbow template version due to the past tense word change. The gaps next to the tense words can be used to write the word (according to the tense) or to write a whole sentence. I have used it for both. Tenses can also be colour coordinated.
