The following sentences are written in the present tense. Rewrite each sentence in each of the other five tenses.
1). I collect.
2). You split.
3). They teach.
4). We give.
5). It remains.
My answers:
1). Past: I collected.
Future: I will collect.
Present perfect: I have collected.
Past perfect: I had collected.
Future perfect: I will have collected.
2). Past: You split.
Future: You will split.
Present perfect: You have split.
Past perfect: You had split.
Future perfect: You will have split.
3). Past: They taught.

Right. :-)
Great job on rewriting the sentences in different tenses! Your answers are correct.
To rewrite each sentence in the different tenses, you followed the correct rules for forming sentences in each tense.
For the past tense, you changed the verb by adding "-ed" or in some cases made an irregular verb form.
For the future tense, you added "will" before the base form of the verb.
For the present perfect tense, you used the auxiliary verb "have" followed by the past participle form of the verb.
For the past perfect tense, you used the auxiliary verb "had" followed by the past participle form of the verb.
And for the future perfect tense, you used the auxiliary verb "will have" followed by the past participle form of the verb.
Overall, your answers demonstrate a good understanding of how to change the tenses of sentences. Well done!
