I will give them a clarification by doing the first example by myself. when they are finished I will ask them to check in pairs and then I will draw a table on the board and ask them to fill it with their answers. I will highlight the verbs endings for 'study, marry, stay' (consonant + y: -ied, vowel + y: -ed). I will clean the board, and drill the verbs then ask them to repeat.
