ED or ING? Illustrated Worksheet
I was having difficulty explaining the difference between the ED and ING adjective formats, so I found some images to illustrate situations and people�s reactions to them. Found it very useful made into a simple worksheet. If time permits, students can write sentences using each word, for additional practice. Best printed in colour.
