A paragraph is given to students and ask them to choose the correct tense in each sentence. They do this activity alone. Then, they check their answers with their partners. Feedback: WCFB
Ask them to write a question for each sentence. Then, they ask and answer these questions in pairs. Write a model on the board. Ask them to use the simple past when they want to give the full answer as they know the time. Monitor students while doing the task and write down their errors for delayed corrective feedback.
Teacher ask SS to write four questions starting with ' have you ever ......?' Then they mingle and ask questions which are written on their paper.
Show students how to play the game with one of the students in the classroom. First teacher tells a sentence for example (I've been to Dubai twice.) Then teacher will say London and throw the ball to another student, s/he has to say ' I've been to London twice as soon as S/he catches the ball. T will tell SS that they can change the subject, noun, or verb. SS who cannot give the right answer will lose the game.
