In pairs, Sts will skim the reading, "The Man Behind KFC", and find examples of regular and irregular verbs. (2 minutes) INSTRUCTIONS: "Ok, please scan through your reading again and underline examples of Past Simple Verbs. (Holding reading to demo) So I'm scanning and I see this first one here, 'died' and I underline that. (ICQ) Do you need to reread it completely? No, just scan to find those past simple verbs. You have 1 minute!" T will elicit difference between regular and irregular verbs. INSTRUCTIONS: "Do all of these verbs have the same endings? What are the differences? ['ed' vs. not] Ok, great! So we have these 'ed' verbs which are regular, and all the others are irregular. Let's separate them out. (Begin separating as WC)" T will put in columns on WB based on Sts' comments. (3 minutes) Regular: Needed, stayed, learned, worked, started, moved, developed, closed, decided, continued, visited, travelled, played. Irregular: went, did, swam, left, had, became, came, made, sold, bought.

T will reorganize regular verbs in the different suffix sounds and ask Sts why they are now grouped this way. (Elicit that the endings have slightly different pronunciations.) Pronounced "/t/": Developed Worked Pronounced "/id/": Started Needed Decided Visited Pronounced "/d/": Continued Played Learned Closed Travelled

T will ask what the rule is for irregular rules --> none. "So the rule for regular verbs is to add an 'ed'. What is the rule for irregular verbs? There is none...We just have to memorize them." Draw T-chart (present/past) on board (Present/Past) and give 2 demonstrations of how to do HO INSTRUCTIONS "Here is our verb, 'come' in present tense. How can we make it past tense? ((If more help needed use in a sentence, first present, then past: "We come to school, We came to school yesterday")). Good! Now if we have a past tense verb, 'swam', how can we make it present? Excellent. Now on these HOs, in pairs, you will continue just like this. Past to present. Present to past." Pass out HO T-chart and Sts will complete it in pairs. T will monitor.
