B. Highlighting of Forms
Teacher’s Activity Learner’s Activity
“From our game a while ago, can you guess
what our lesson is for today?”
“Very good, It is connected with past, present and
future.”
“What do you think is our exact topic?”
“Very good, ______”
“Our lesson for today is all about the simple
tenses of the verb.”
“Let us first define verb. What is a verb?”
“Very good.”
“Past, Present and Future, Ma’am.”
“Ma’am, tenses of the verb.”
“Verbs are words that show action or state
of being.”
3. “Verbs are words that show action while tense is
the form of the verb that shows when the action
takes place.”
“We have three simple tenses of the verb, the
Simple Past Tense, Simple Present Tense and
Simple Future Tense."
Simple Past Tense
Simple past tense is used to talk about a
completed action. It is formed by using the past
form of the verb.
Examples:
I talked to my father yesterday.
My dog barked a while ago.
She ate with me yesterday.
Simple Present Tense
Simple present tense indicates that an action is
present. Generally, it is used to describe actions
that are factual or habitual- things that occur in
the present but not necessarily happening right
now. It is formed by using the present/base form
of the verb.
Examples:
It rains a lot in Portland.
I use my bike to get around town.
The program starts at 8:00 am.
Simple Future Tense
The simple future tense indicates that an action is
in the future. It is formed by using the helping
verb will and the base form of the verb.
Examples:
I will eat lunch with you later.
We will pass the project tomorrow.
The bus will arrive later.

flaglet will answer first. The first to answer
