A full writing lesson teaching how to write in the present perfect tense.
The present perfect tense consists of the word ‘has’ or ‘have’ followed by the past participle of the verb. The past participle may be the same as the past tense form with most regular verbs but there are many differences with irregular verbs.
The present perfect tense is used for the following reasons:
- To describe our past experiences and talk about places we have been to
- To refer to things that have happened very recently
- To talk about things that started in the past but the effects of which are still true now
The presentation includes:
√ Learning objective
√ Three success criteria
√ Starter activity designed to get children in the writing mood
√ Review slides, activities & answer slides - reviewing the present perfect tense & its grammar points
√ 3 x writing activities to practise writing in the present perfect tense for 3 purposes:
- To describe our past experiences and talk about places we have been to
- To refer to things that have happened very recently
- To talk about things that started in the past but the effects of which are still true now
√ Plenary activity
PLEASE NOTE - Please look at the ‘notes’ section of the PowerPoint for additional information about each slide. These include teaching tips, ideas and further explanations.
This lesson is also suitable for being delivered remotely through online learning with some slight adaptations. It could combine very well with platforms such as Pear Deck and Nearpod.
