A full lesson presentation teaching what the past simple tense is, why we use it and how to write in the past simple tense.
The past simple tense is used to talk about things that have already happened. It is used especially for describing things that we know when happened. All clauses (and so sentences) must have a verb. Verbs tell us the tense of a clause. We distinguish between regular and irregular verbs. Regular verbs are verbs which follow a rule to change to past simple (we add the suffix -ed to these words). Irregular verbs do not follow a rule to change to their past tense form.
This lesson includes:
β Complete PowerPoint presentation for the full lesson
β Learning objective
β Three success criteria
β Starter activity
β Teaching input & information slides
β Consolidation activities
β Differentiated independent activities
β Differentiated questioning
β Speaking, listening, reading and writing tasks

Identifying the verbs in sentences
Distinguishing between regular and irregular verbs
