No Class March 21, but here are some things...


Hello class! I hope everyone is well.

As you know we aren’t meeting today, March 21, but I want to give you a few things to work on, if you have time. These are videos that focus on the simple past tense.

This video focuses on negative sentences in the past tense.

Before you watch the next video, review these past tense verbs.
Verbs: Present and past
1. go — went
2. eat — ate
3. see — saw
4. visit — visited
5. watch — watched
6. do — did
7. make — made
8. buy — bought
9. ride — rode
10. is — was

You can practice pronunciation here:

Now watch this next video. Try to complete the sentence as fast as you can.

Finally, here is a good song from the nineteen eighties with lots of past tense verbs. It is called “Summer of ’69”
Here is a video with lyrics:

And here is the original MTV video:

I hope you enjoy those videos. I will check in with you on Remind at around noon. Bye for now!

No class on Saturday, March 14.

Hello class! Unfortunately, we will have no class on Saturday, March 14, Saturday, March 21, or Saturday, March 28. This is because of concerns about the coronavirus. Starting on March 30, we will begin to study again, but probably only online for at least a few more weeks after that.

I will post more information later.

Take care!
