Mel's 10EAL

Students will work on a review assignment about the different verb tenses. We will correct this assignment together in class today.

PAST, PRESENT & FUTURE TENSE REVIEW:

Verbs are words that show an action or state of being. The verb tense tells when the
action happened. When the verb tense changes, the verb often changes its spelling.
The three major tenses are:
● past (yesterday, earlier, long ago)
● present (today, now, currently)
● future (tomorrow, later, next year)

Past: She ran yesterday.

Present: She runs past me today.

Future: She will run tomorrow.

Past Progressive: She was running yesterday.

Present Progressive: She is running today.

Future Progressive: She will be running tomorrow.

Student will also work on completing the autobiography writing assignment about the past.
