Development of an English lesson on the topic “PAST SIMPLE.

Explanatory note for the lesson

This work is presented in the humanitarian direction. The topic of the lesson is “Past Simple”. The group is average in terms of language proficiency. The work uses the program M.Z. Biboletova and N.N. Trubaneva “Enjoy English” for grades 2-11 of secondary schools, the textbook “Enjoy English”, authors M. Z. Biboletova, O. A. Denisenko, N. N. Trubaneva, 2 hours a week, 68 hours a year, section of the textbook “The holiday is approaching.”
The proposed methodological development of an English lesson for the 4th grade can be used both when mastering the grammatical topic “Past Simple” and to consolidate the material studied.

There are different methods of learning a foreign language: some suggest focusing on colloquial speech, others prefer grammar above all. In school practice great attention devoted to the study of difficult grammatical rules.

Lesson structure(stages):

1) Organizational moment

2) Phonetic exercise

3) Checking homework

4) Learning new material

5) Physical education minute

6) Getting to know regular and irregular verbs.

7) Constructing affirmative sentences in the Past Simple

8) Construction of negative and interrogative

sentences in Past Simple

9) Constructing special questions in the Past Simple

10) Evaluation of student activities

11) Reflection

12) Homework

During the lesson, methods are used to stimulate interest in learning: games, team competition, group work, handout, which contributes to more easy to remember complex grammatical material and the involvement of all students in lesson activities. The lesson uses a communicative technique. The lesson is accompanied by a computer presentation. The use of an interactive whiteboard allows you to implement the principles of clarity, accessibility and systematic presentation of the material. It stimulates the development of students’ mental and creative activity, passion for the subject, and ensures the effectiveness of learning the material in the lesson. The lesson also uses an audio supplement to the textbook “Enjoy Englis” for grade 4.

The presentation “Past Simple - Past Simple Tense” is intended for use in class when explaining new material. From it, students will learn what the meaning of this category of time is, in what form the auxiliary verb is used in different numbers. To find the past simple in a sentence or construct a phrase yourself, you need to know which phrases are “signals” about the use of the past simple - the children also become familiar with them in the lesson using a presentation.

The children have a positive attitude and are interested in conducting non-standard lesson using multimedia information display tools.

Ex.11

In this lesson we will learn the rules for forming the past simple tense, Past Simple, as well as various cases of its use. Let's learn marker words that indicate the need to use the past simple tense Past Simple.

Topic: English verb tenses

Lesson: Using the past simple tensePastSimple

Past simple tensePastSimple is formed as follows (using the example of the verb play).

Affirmative sentences:

Table 2. Interrogative sentences in PastSimple tense

Negative sentences:

Table 3. Negative sentences in PastSimple time

Thus, to form past simple tensePastSimple, must be supplied semantic verb into the second form. For regular verbs ( regularverbs) you need to add an ending to the infinitive - ed , and for irregular verbs ( irregularverbs) this form must be looked at in the second column of the table of irregular verbs.

Please note that to form the interrogative and negative forms you must use auxiliary verb did. It is the same for all persons, but when used, the semantic verb will be in the initial form (infinitive).

Exception makes up a verb tobe. He independently forms interrogative and negative forms. In questions, it comes first before the subject, and in the negative form it takes the particle not - was not (wasn’t) / were not (weren’t).

It's also worth noting that the negative form did not is often shortened to didn't.

Past simple tensePastSimple has several cases of use:

1. To describe the sequence of events in the past.

I got up, washed, dressed and went to school. - I got up, washed, got dressed and went to school.

2. To describe events that happened at a certain point in the past.

He finished school last year. - He graduated from school last year.

3. To describe events that happened in the past and have no connection with the present. The exact time of action is usually not indicated, but most often these are those cases when we are talking about people who are no longer alive.

Mozart wrote a lot of magnificent music. - Mozart wrote a lot of great music.

4. To describe conditions or habits in the past.

We went to the cinema twice a week. - We went to the cinema twice a week.

She liked the rain. - She loved the rain.

There was an old oak tree near the house. - An oak tree used to grow near the house.

In the same meaning the phrase used to + infinitive can be used and verb would+ infinitive

Please note that the verb would cannot be used with stative verbs.

We used to go to the cinema twice a week = We would go to the cinema twice a week.

She used to like the rain.

There used to be an old oak tree near the house.

In sentences with pastsimpletimePast Simple Often there are such time circumstances - yesterday, the day before yesterday, the other day, last year (month, week), on Sunday, in 1998, on the first of September, ago.
