This game is designed as short independent practice after an idea has been introduced. It does not replace direct teaching, mathematical or scientific discussion, or an adult checking whether the learner can explain the idea away from the screen.

Ask the learner to locate the time clue or certainty clue before choosing the verb form. Take a break when you need one.
