About this resource

Description

Learning when to write see, saw, or sees is one of the first places second graders meet an irregular verb, and it trips up even confident readers. Most verbs simply add -ed to show the past, but see does not: it changes shape completely and becomes saw. On top of that, the present tense splits in two, because a single person or thing sees while I, you, and any group of people see. This See Saw Sees Worksheet gives students focused practice with all three forms in real sentences, so they learn to listen for the time word and look at the subject before they choose.

Every sentence on this page carries a clue. Time markers such as last week and last spring point to the past, the words right now point to the present, and the helping word can always calls for the plain form. Use this 2nd grade verbs worksheet as morning work, as a quick check after a grammar lesson, or as a homework page that parents can talk through in a few minutes. Students read the word box first, work down Part A one sentence at a time, then switch roles in Part B and become the editor who spots and repairs a mistake.

What’s Included

  • 1 print-ready PDF worksheet
  • Answer key
  • A word box with all three verb forms
  • 4 fill-in-the-blank sentences and 4 correct-the-sentence items

Three things make this page work. First, it teaches the choice as a decision rather than a rule to memorize, because every item hands the student a real clue to reason from. Second, the two parts ask for two different kinds of thinking: Part A asks students to produce the right form, while Part B asks them to notice a wrong one, and editing is what makes the pattern stick. Third, the sentences describe ordinary classroom and family moments, so students are reading language they already use when they finish this see saw sees worksheet.

Teachers and parents can stretch the skill past the page. Try a quick oral warm-up where you say a sentence and students answer with a thumbs up or thumbs down. Keep a small chart on the wall with the three forms and add a student-written sentence under each one during the week. Play a memory game with cards that pair a subject such as my sister or the two boys with the form it takes. Reading aloud helps too: pause when you hit the verb and let students supply the form before you read it.
