Regular verbs form • -edfor all persons Play  played Work  worked Stay  stayed Listen  listened

Spelling • 1) Double the consonant if the consonant is stressedstop – stoppedswap - swapped • 2)Add only –d, when the verb ends with –e love – lovedsave – saved • 3)Verbs ending in 'y' preceded by a consonant: Change 'y' to 'i' Then add -ed. hurry - he hurried (watch out!play – played)

Irregular verbs form • The form CHANGES from infinitives, usually with a vowel change. • Can be grouped according to certain change patterns, which helps to memorize them.

Certain change patterns • speak  spoke • eat  ate • see  saw • fly  flew • think  thought

I he she it you we they Verb TO BE • were was

Past Simple Use • Actions that started and finished in the past • I went to the beach last Sunday • I bought a new car yesterday.

Past Simple Use • Actions that happened one after the other in the past (like in a story) • He came in, took off his coat and sat down. • I went into the disco and I saw my favourite girl, then I asked her to dance,...

Past Tense Lesson Plan

Past Tense – A Complete Past Simple Lesson Plan

In this past tense lesson plan, students will learn simple past tense verbs and sentences while playing fun classroom games. Once students learn how to use the past tense then they can use this language to talk about themselves and what they did yesterday, before the lesson, at the weekend, during the vacation, etc. To help students use the past tense fluently, after teaching this lesson, talking about the past tense can become part of your classroom routine. 

This page is a complete ESL lesson plan to teach the simple past tense using both regular and irregular verbs. If you would rather focus on just regular verbs, then the activities in this lesson can be easily adapted for that. All the materials for the games and activities in this lesson can be found below. For more past tense lesson materials not included in this lesson plan check the section at the bottom of the page. 

Materials for this lesson:

Simple past tense lesson plan for beginner esl students, introducing the past tense.

Before teaching students the past tense form, it is important to put the lesson in context so that students can understand what it is they will learn. A great way to introduce the past tense is to draw a simple timeline on the board. In the middle of the timeline write ‘today’ and ask students what day it is today and write that day on the board. 

Practice Key Words And Sentences

Tell students that in order to talk about the past, we need to change the verb into the past tense. Write some regular verbs on the board (watch, play, walk, talk, cook, etc.) and show students how to change into the past tense by adding ‘ed’. Ask students to repeat after you and practice saying each past tense verb. 

Activity 1: Past Tense Guessing Game

ESL Past Tense Game | Past Tense Verbs | Hidden Picture Game

This game is great to introduce the past tense to students and is a fun way to practice making past tense sentences. In this past tense game, students will see how to change a verb into the past tense. Then an image that is hidden behind some colored shapes is slowly revealed. Students must guess what the picture is of, and use that word to complete the past tense sentence. To play, simply play the above video in class and pause when students are ready to guess. 

Activity 2: Past Tense Memory Game

This past tense memory game becomes incredibly fun once students start to remember where the matching verbs are. For more free memory games like this, and for a blank editable template, visit out  PPT Games page . 

Activity 3: Mystery Box Game – Past Tense

Past Tense ESL Game | English Past Tense Verbs | Mystery Box Game

Before finishing the class, review the past tense verbs and sentences from the lesson. A great way to do this is to ask students to ask their partner ‘What did you do (yesterday / last weekend)?’. Once students have asked their partner, then ask students to tell you what their partner did yesterday / at the weekend.
