Tenses

¢Audience: 6th graders

¢Engage: Gain the students attention with a PowerPoint presentation. Before the presentation I will ask the class to list as many of the tenses they know.

¢Explore: Students will learn how to recognize what verb tense is being used.

¢Explain: I will explain to the students the rules of each basic verb tense. I will show an explanation for each one in depth.

¢Expand: Their knowledge will be expanded by numerous examples of each tense and applying it to the homework.

¢Evaluate: At the end of class students get into groups and come up with their own creative sentences for the assigned tense.

¢E-search: For homework the students will find an advertisement online or in a magazine and identify what verb tense is being used.
