Description: Your students will have fun reviewing past simple irregular verbs with this engaging grammar game with a St. Patrick’s Day theme. In this mystery picture reveal game, students will read a story about a child who tries to catch a leprechaun on St. Patrick’s Day. The story consists of twenty sentences, which are presented one at a time to highlight the target grammar point. An audio recording is provided for each sentence to support emergent and struggling readers. Each sentence contains an irregular verb in the past simple form, which students must type correctly to complete a piece of the puzzle. The following verbs are included: be, bring, build, catch, come, fall, find, give, go, have, hide, hold, put, read, see, take. A list of infinitive and past simple forms is given on the first slide to review and clarify verb forms and spellings.
