What's included?
Dedicated Year 2 resources for recognising past progressive tense (e.g., *was walking*), a key KS1 Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling objective for verb use. Activities build conceptual understanding of how this tense describes an ongoing action in the past, promoting reasoning in sentence analysis. This essential small step supports mastery of verb forms and is vital for meeting national curriculum grammar expectations. The CS Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling Scheme provides structured identification practice.
