Set out your lesson
Match present-tense verbs to singular and plural subjects.
Distinguish one dog from several dogs and identify who does an action.
Directed source edges are preserved, not assumed completed. If the readiness probe is difficult, model with support and record supported practice instead of independent evidence.
Use the supplied stage-specific structured materials. Plain paper and pencil; screen viewing is optional.
Show, guided, put teaching sheet aside, then task sheets in order; adult keys remain private.
No printing or cutting is required unless explicitly choosing a physical construction. Exact paper alternatives are in each material; adaptations change the evidence mode as stated.
Materials are ready in each step. Use them on screen or print just the current step. Put teaching examples aside before the learner tries.
What this lesson covers and its limits
These are bounded opportunities, not learner attainment. Partial and blocked source requirements remain so.
- partial: Use singular and plural nouns with matching verbs in sentences, maintaining subject-verb agreement (e.g., 'He hops' vs 'We hop')
Regular simple-present verbs plus irregular-plural subjects; be/have, other tenses and dialect/register variation require separate work. This is a bounded task opportunity, not established attainment or automatic use across contexts.
- partial: Write 'The dog runs' (singular) and 'The dogs run' (plural) with correct verb agreement
Mapped task(s) offer this clause only within the supplied examples. Regular simple-present verbs plus irregular-plural subjects; be/have, other tenses and dialect/register variation require separate work. No attainment or automatic/general performance is claimed.
- partial: Correct subject-verb agreement errors in sentences: fix 'The children plays' to 'The children play'
Mapped task(s) offer this clause only within the supplied examples. Regular simple-present verbs plus irregular-plural subjects; be/have, other tenses and dialect/register variation require separate work. No attainment or automatic/general performance is claimed.
- partial: Choose the correct verb form to match a singular or plural subject in a gap-fill exercise
Mapped task(s) offer this clause only within the supplied examples. Regular simple-present verbs plus irregular-plural subjects; be/have, other tenses and dialect/register variation require separate work. No attainment or automatic/general performance is claimed.
- partial: If {{name}} writes "she hop" or "we hops", do they catch the mistake — and can they fix it to "she hops" and "we hop" so the subject and verb match?
