Common questions

What do Year 2 students learn about verbs & tenses?

Action verbs, tenses and subject–verb agreement. At Year 2, our resources focus on: identifying action verbs; finding the verb in a sentence; choosing verbs that make sense; writing simple sentences with verbs.

Where should we start?

Start with the Level 1 or Level 2 worksheet, then move up a level. Finish with the topic test if there is one.

Are answers included?

Yes — every worksheet has an answer sheet. Maths answer sheets show the working; English tasks include model answers or success criteria.

How to use these resources

  1. Do one grammar worksheet, then find the same feature in a book you're reading.
  2. Use the quiz at the end of a year level to check what's stuck.
  3. Apply the skill: edit a piece of your own writing for that feature.
