LIMITED TIME:
NOTE: these holiday write-ups often use verbs in the past tense. So they lend themselves to focusing on 1) the formation and pronunciation of regular verbs in the past tense, and 2) the presentation--by rote repetition--of irregular past tense verbs, of which there are many frequently used ones. These need to be presented early on and regularly practiced.
