IRREGULAR VERBS - V2 - DIVIDED INTO GROUPS FOR EASIER PRACTICING
This exercise is very useful when students have to practice V2 (irregular past simple), for example before a test. The verbs are divided into groups, according to the phonetic sounds or spelling of the past form. Some of the groups have just something in common, like a "t" at the end of the word, etc. I hope you like it.
