How to teach the grammar topics of PARTICIPLE ADJECTIVES, commonly referred to as -ed and -ing adjectives.
Find this video's companion resources at [ Ссылка ], including printouts, presentation materials, and further tips and tricks.

There are 2 types of Participle Adjectives: Active and Passive

ACTIVE ADJECTIVES use the present participle form (they end with 'ing') and express that the connected noun causes the related action. Remember that progressive or continuous tenses also are active and also have verbs that end with 'ing'.

PASSIVE ADJECTIVES use the past participle form (they usually end with 'ed') and express that the connected noun is affected by the related action. Remember that perfect tenses can also focus on results and also have verbs that end with 'ed' (unless they are irregular verbs).

Passive Adjectives can express the same things as the Passive Voice structure and in the same way.
