Adding –ed to words

I hopped out of bed, got dressed, and headed off to work. He hopped over the hot sand. She hopped the first available flight to New York.

We have something very special planned for your birthday. They planned the whole thing out. Their wedding is planned for June.

She grabbed his wrist. We grabbed at the chance to go. He grabbed for the ball and missed. A new cancer treatment grabbed the headlines this week.

She nodded when I asked her if she was ready. He nodded to his assistant to start the slide show. She nodded toward the dirty dishes and said she would get to them later. I nodded off during his speech.

He stepped outside for a moment. He accidentally stepped on a nail. A witness stepped forward to identify the robber. She just stepped out to get some milk.

She dropped the apple core into the trash can. The ball dropped between the right and center fielders. The temperature dropped to 50 degrees. He dropped the package at the post office this morning.

The cake batter must be stirred for 10 minutes. The breeze stirred the leaves on the tree. The workers stirred up a lot of dust. He never stirred from the couch all afternoon.

She hoped that she would be invited to the party. That's what she hoped would happen. It is hoped that the strike will end soon.

She saved a tense situation by staying calm. I saved $20,000 for a down payment on the house. The runners saved their energy for the last lap. The relief pitcher saved the game.

All the windows in the house are closed. These restrooms are closed for cleaning. The meeting was closed to the public. I had a closed mind at first, but now I understand the need for change.

He scored a touchdown. He has scored again with his latest thriller. Each correct answer scores two points.

It was one of the largest animals that has ever lived. He lived to the age of 92. We lived in the country. You haven't lived until you've had a piece of my mom's apple pie!

A man named James Smith is on the phone. The magazine named him as the best artist of the year. NASA has not yet named the date for the shuttle launch.

The islands are joined by a bridge. The singer started alone but soon the whole audience joined in. I joined the line and waited patiently to buy a ticket. She joined the club.

You should have waited a little longer. He showed up right after you left. I have waited for this opportunity for a long time. She waited behind after class to talk to the professor.

We waited for what seemed like hours. He didn't seem interested. Buying a new car seemed like a good idea at the time.

He shouted out in pain when the doctor moved his broken ankle. He shouted himself hoarse at the game. The general shouted out orders to his men. Protesters shouted insults as city officials passed by.

We passed each other in the hallway without looking up. The airplane passed out of sight. She passed the baby back to his mother. The rumor quickly passed from person to person.

She wanted more time to finish the test. The suspect was wanted for murder. He desperately wanted back into the game. I just wanted a chance to rest.

The firefighters acted with great courage. She was terribly nervous, but she acted confident. At their last party, they acted out scenes from old movies. A young man acted as our guide through the city.

He saw the money lying on the table, and he helped himself. I helped her down the stairs. The aspirin helped her throbbing headache.

He started studying music at the age of five. We started the meeting at 6:30. She started feeling dizzy soon after the accident. The tradition was started many years ago.

We ate salads of mixed greens. I don't know if he likes me; he keeps giving me mixed messages. I'm having mixed feelings about this class. She went to a mixed school.

The dog chewed a hole in the rug. I got chewed out for leaving early. The truck chewed up the grass. He chewed the problem over in his mind.
