Key learning points
- Practising word recall often helps to secure word knowledge.
- The 1st person singular talks about ‘I'; to mean 'I' with an -er verb, the ending changes to -o.
- The 3rd person singular talks about 'she, he, it'; to form this with an -er verb, the ending changes to -e.
- New vocabulary and verb structures can be practised through playing a game.
Keywords
-er verbs - a verb whose infinitive form ends in -er
1st person singular - form of pronouns and verbs used to talk about 'I'
3rd person singular - form of pronouns and verbs used to refer to 'she, he, it'
Common misconception
The endings for -er verbs change in the same way that they do for -ar verbs.
Whilst the 'I' form changes to -o for both -ar and -er verbs, for 'she, he, it' the endings are different - it is -a for -ar verbs and -e for -er verbs.
Teacher tip
Provide additional opportunities to play the game. Pupils could adapt the game and change the letter to use other vocabulary that they know.
