Present perfect tense

This resource includes a comprehensive teacher Notebook which ensures the children understand how to use the auxiliary verbs ‘has’ and ‘have’ before looking at how to use verbal rehearsal to identify the simple past tense and past participle forms of verbs. It then teaches them how to combine these skills to write in the present perfect form before learning some of the scenarios where they might apply it in their writing. There is also an independent task sheet for the children to put their learning into practice and a challenge activity that ensures they recognise when to use the present perfect tense and when to just use the simple past.
