Use these task cards with your Adult ESL Beginner or Intermediate students to practice asking and answering questions using both regular and irregular verbs in the past simple tense.
These cards are great to use with multi level classes (as beginners’ classes tend to be). They are easy to use because I’ve done all the hard work for you.
Included in this resource.
- 64 task cards - 32 in colour and 32 in black and white
- 2 grammar reference sheets with a review of Yes/no and Wh question forms
- lists of common regular and irregular verbs for students to refer to, if needed.
There are 2 sets of 16 cards - all with questions in the past simple tense. Set 1 has the complete question, Set 2 has gaps in the question requiring the student to create the question before asking it. In both Set 1 and Set 2 , questions 1 - 8 are easier than questions 9 -16 which include more difficult vocabulary and will be more difficult to answer.
Task cards are very versatile and an be used in a variety of ways in a classroom:
- To practice a grammar point/ target language that has been taught - in this case the past tense
- As a warm up activity
- As a review of a previous lesson
- As a diagnostic tool for you
- To change the pace during the lesson and get the students talking
- Can be used with pairs or groups
This lesson prints to A4 paper and may have some UK/Australian spelling.

Past and Present Perfect Tense Bundle for Adult ESL Beginners
I use these lessons with a mixed ability beginner Adult ESL Class. This bundle contains at least 2 complete lessons (maybe more) 1. is an introduction to the past tense to describe events in the past that are relevant to the students. I have introduced some commonly used regular and irregular verbs and question and negative forms. It is designed to equip adult ESL students with some basic language to communicate with. It is NOT a comprehensive lesson on the past tense. 2. This lesson focuses on the topic of life experiences and the use of the present perfect tense. Both of these lessons covers a lot of the elementary language: Reading and understanding simple texts about familiar topics. Past simple tense Present perfect to describe experiences Question forms Everyday vocabulary Speaking practice –asking and answering questions Guided writing – writing simple sentences and a short paragraph Extension writing activity The 2 task card resources are designed to supplement and extend the lessons. They will provide an opportunity for your Adult ESL Beginner or Intermediate students to practice asking and answering questions using both regular and irregular verbs in the past simple tense and present perfect tense. These cards are great to use with multi level classes (as beginners' classes tend to be). They are easy to use because I've done all the hard work for you.
