Possible Common Core Standards:
RF.4.3
suffix -ed
Go on an -ed word hunt as a class or in small groups. Put each word on a card.
giggled
walked
tied
stepped
attacked
no-handed
closed
yelled
and more
Ask students to study the ending sound of the word. Do they all end with the 'd' sound? Ask them to sort them. This is a great springboard activity to getting the students to understand the sounds of -ed. I frequently had students spell words wrong just because they didn't understand this. You can continue the learning by adding to the word sort when reading other text and finding more -ed words.
