The 6th and 7th Period Grammar
A Simple past tense
Task-based Teaching Aims:
1. Cognitive Development
Make sure students can recognize the tense freely.
2. Proficiency Level
To develop their integrated skills through listening, reading, speaking and writing. They can use the tense to make up sentences and dialogues freely after learning. They can also recognize and use adverbs to order events.
3. Affective Learning
To develop their enjoyments of life and things around them, especially the success of learning, through interactive teaching and student-oriented teaching.
4. Cultural Understanding
Make them feel the cultural differences between Eastern and Western Countries.
Step 1 Revise the purpose and use of the simple past tense by using a timeline. Draw a timeline on the board to show how the simple past tense is expressed in English. Give students some common time expressions: yesterday, last night, a month ago, yesterday afternoon, last week, ten years ago and make sure they can use the simple past tense to talk about things in the past.
e.g. 1. Eddie met Millie 3 years ago.
2. Eddie was ill yesterday.
Step 2 Teach them how to form the simple past tense before practicing them.
We form the simple past tense by adding ‘-ed’ to regular verbs.
Most verbs + ed walk →consonant walked
Verbs ending in e + d live → lived
Verbs ending in a consonant + y - y + ied try → tried
Short verbs ending in double the
a vowel + a consonant consonant + ed stop → stopped
We form the simple past tense of irregular verbs differently. We do not add ‘ –ed’.
No change cost → cost
Change the vowel come → came
Change the consonant make → made
Change the vowel (s) and the consonant (s) buy → bought
Writing about the past
A1. Write about the simple past tense forms of the verbs below.
1. start → started 2. dress → dressed 3. play → played
4. help → helped 5. use → used 6. like → liked
7. look → looked 8. study → studied 9. plan → planned
Step 3 Talk to students about what you did last weekend and ask some questions as you go along, e.g. I had a really good weekend.
Did you have a good weekend?
I played tennis for two hours.
What did you do?
I watched a film on Saturday evening. It finished at 11 p.m.
What did you do last Saturday?
On Sunday, I took a bus from Wangfujing.
There were a lot of people.
What did you do on Sunday?
Step 4 Teach them how to use the simple past tense to make positive and negative sentences, ask and answer questions. Have them complete the conversation. Check answers and clarify any misunderstandings.
Mrs Wang: Did Millie ask Grandma about the dress on Monday?
Andy: No, she didn’t. She went to the Reading Club. Did she help you with the shopping on Tuesday?
Mrs Wang: Yes, she did. Did she play volleyball on Wednesday?
Andy: Yes, she did. But she cleaned her bedroom.
Mrs Wang: I know! Did she do her Maths project?
Andy: No, she didn’t. But she did some work for the fashion show.
Step 5 Teach them how to use the simple past tense to form positive and negative sentences, ask and answer questions with the verb ‘ to be’. Have them complete the conversation. Check answers and clarify any misunderstandings.
Millie: Were you at home on Saturday morning?
Sandy: Yes, I was.
Millie: Was your cousin at the football match?
Sandy: No, he wasn’t. He was at the shopping mall with Mum.
Millie: Were you and your parents at the cinema on Saturday evening?
Sandy: Yes, we were.
Millie: Were your grandparents at the fashion show on Friday?
Sandy: No, they weren’t.
Millie: Were we at school last Monday?
Sandy: No, we weren’t. Last Monday was a holiday.
B Sequencing events
Step 1 To recognize and use adverbs to order events. Tell them to pay attention to the simple past tense. We use these adverbs to show the order in which things happen. We put the adverbs at the beginning of a sentence as they connect the sentences. We often use them to clarify a process or a particular sequence of events.
( first, then, next, afterward, finally)
Step 2 Ask students to do a presentation about their own day using the adverbs they have learned. Encourage them to include more information. Help them choose a title. Remind them to use the simple past tense.
B1 Briefly review the adverbs, using the picturesfor support.
Ask students to write the letters in the boxes in Ppart B1 individually. Students check each other’s sequence of sentences. Monitor the class as you walk around.
B2 Set the context by reminding students about the fashion show described earlier in the unit before asking students to do B2. Link Simon’s experience to any other events your students may have been involved in. introduce the idea of woriting a picture story as a narrative using adverbs and the simple past tense to order events.
Step 3 Review key vocabualry and explain unfamiliar words: ‘ catwalk.’
Ask questions about each picture.
1) What did Simon do first?
2) What did Simon wear?
3) What did he do next?
4) Who did Simon talk to?
5) Where did he go afterwards?
Ask students to write sentences about Simon’s day using the simple past tense. Check the answers as a class activity.

Sample writing
Teenagers like clothes that are fashionable and look good. My brochure is about casual, comfortable style.
First, I designed a cotton T-shirt. It is bright red and has a V-neck. It goes well with a pair of jeans. The jeans have wide legs. There are lots of big pockets at the front and back. I also designed a cotton shirt with long sleeves and buttons in the front.
Then I designed a pair of trainers to go with the jeans and T-shirt. They are very comfortable and made of white leather. They do not have laces, so they are easy to put on. The jacket I designed is blue with white sleeves.
All the clothes are comfortable to wear at weekends.
