Introduction (5 minutes)
Start by showing the students the enlarged Verb Tense Chart,
with past, present and future simple tense definitions,
descriptions and examples.
Tell students to take a moment with their partners and discuss DOCX
what’s on the chart. This is meant for students to have an Past, Present,
opportunity to make observations and discuss things that they
Future
might already know, and things they don't.
Have students share their observations whole class. This will
help you set the stage for the objective and essential question.
Explain that verb tense tells us when an action takes place. The
past tense tells what has already happened, the present tense
tells us what is happening, and the future tense tells what will
happen.
Tell students that by the end of the lesson, they will be able to
identify the past, present, and future tenses, and write a
sentence using a tense.
To set the purpose for the lesson, introduce the essential
question: How does knowing the past, present and future
tense of verbs help us communicate? Have this on the board
DOCX
with the objectives. You will revisit this question at the end of
Assessment
the lesson when students complete the exit ticket.
