ABOUT

This game is for practicing past tense English verbs. It is intended to be used
by ESL (English as a second language) students, to review past participles. The
aim of this game is not to explain or communicate the concept of past tense,
rather it is just to practice using past tense. The concept of past tense is
difficult to illustrate visually and really is better explained by a teacher in
a classroom. So, this game is really just intended as a tool to practice verbs
and sentences in past tense. The language used is quite basic, but I think it
covers almost all of the basic past tense verb forms (regular and irregular) and
a few more difficult ones.

There are 3 different tasks in the game. In the first task, you simply have to
drag the verbs to match present to past tense forms. The second task requires
you to choose the correct word to complete the sentence. Finally, for the third
task you have to reorder the phrase. This sequence repeats with different sets
of content.

There is also a review screen in which you can see each verb with its
past-participle and an image to convey the meaning.

The game uses a timer to give an element of challenge to the game. The timer can
be turned of by clicking on the settings button in game.

There are 22 sets of content. Each set has 8 verbs, with a matching image and
sentence to convey meaning and context. This gives a total of 176 items. These
were selected from lists of basic verbs in English with a slight bias towards
choosing irregular past tense forms; although, some verbs that were hard to
represent visually were excluded. For example, it is quite difficult to draw an
image to show the meaning of the verb 'decide'. I hope that almost all the basic
verbs are covered here and that by mastering this game, students will have a
comprehensive mastery of all the basic past tense forms.
