What does Verb Time Machine teach?

Verb Time Machine is a reading game for 2nd grade – 5th grade that practises verb tenses. Like every TernQuest game it is tied to a skill on the curriculum map (California Common Core, PK–5), and Pip the tern gives hints, never answers.

Is it free?

Yes. Verb Time Machine is in the free tier, playable in the browser with no ads and no signup. A free account (one child) saves progress and stars.
