Past Simple Tense Review: What did you do last weekend? By the end of this lesson, you will be able to: • describe what you did last weekend by using regular past tense verbs. • create questions to ask about last weekend What did you do last weekend? Did you enjoy your weekend? Why or why not? To talk about completed actions in the past, English uses the past tense.

verb + - ed = past tense relax - ed relaxed exercise - ed exercised clean - ed cleaned To ask questions about the past, English uses the form: Wh? + did + subject + verb? Example: If your teacher cleaned last weekend, you could ask: What did you clean? If you watched movies last weekend, someone might ask you: What did you watch? Wh?: who what where when why how

Name one thing you don’t do every day. I ________ ______________ every day In English, you can make a sentence negative by using the structure: subject + don't/doesn't* + base verb + object *I, you, we, they + don’t *he, she, it + doesn’t Ex: I don't like pizza. She doesn't live in the United Sta

By the end of this lesson, you will be able to: • ask about past experiences using the present perfect tense. • describe what you have not done in the past using negative sentences. Have you been to the United States? Yes, I have been _________________. No, I have not been ______________. Have you traveled by train? Yes, I have traveled __________________. No, I have not traveled _______________.

To ask questions about experiences that happened at an unspecified time in the past, English can use the present perfect tense. When asking a question in the present perfect tense, English often uses the adverb ever. Ever means “at any time”. Have / has + subject + ever + past participle + rest of the question? Example: Have you ever climbed a mountain? Has she ever been to Japan? Have they ever lived in the United States? Remember! Perfect tenses always use the auxiliary verb: to have

Remember! Regular past participles are formed: verb + ed To form a negative statement in the present perfect tense, English uses the form: Subject + has / have + not + past participle + rest of the sentence. Example: Have you ever climbed a mountain? No, I have not climbed a mountain. Has she ever been to Korea? No, she hasn’t been to Korea..

In spoken English, native speakers tend to use the negative contracted form of the present perfect tense: Subject + verb + not Contraction I have not I haven’t you have not you haven’t he / she / it has not he / she / it hasn’t we have not we haven’t they have not they haven’t Match the questions to the correct answers. Has he ever watched soccer? Yes, he has spoken in front of many crowds. Has he ever been on TV? No, he hasn’t booked his ticket.

Has he ever given a public speech? No, he hasn’t been in front of a camera. Has he picked his flight? Yes, he’s enjoyed many sports.
