4. MATERIAL 1
The simple past tense is used to talk about actions that
happened at a specific time in the past.
USE 1 Completed Action in the Past
Use the Simple Past to express the idea that an action started
and finished at a specific time in the past. Sometimes, the
speaker may not actually mention the specific time, but they do
have one specific time in mind.
Examples:
I saw a movie yesterday.
I didn't see a play yesterday.
Last year, I traveled to Japan.
Last year, I didn't travel to Korea.
Did you have dinner last night?
She washed her car.
He didn't wash his car.

5. USE 2 A Series of Completed Actions
We use the Simple Past to list a series of completed actions in the
past. These actions happen 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and so on.
Examples:
- I finished work, walked to the beach, and found a nice place to
swim.
- He arrived from the airport at 8:00, checked into the hotel at
9:00, and met the others at 10:00.
- Did you add flour, pour in the milk, and then add the eggs?
MATERIAL 1

6. USE 3 Duration in Past
The Simple Past can be used with a duration which starts and
stops in the past. A duration is a longer action often indicated by
expressions such as: for two years, for five minutes, all day, all
year, etc.
Examples:
•I lived in Brazil for two years.
•Shauna studied Japanese for five years.
•They sat at the beach all day.
•They did not stay at the party the entire time.
•We talked on the phone for thirty minutes.
•A: How long did you wait for them?
B: We waited for one hour.
MATERIAL 1

7. MATERIAL 1
USE 4 Habits in the Past
The Simple Past can also be used to describe a habit which
stopped in the past. It can have the same meaning as “used to“.
To make it clear that we are talking about a habit, we often add
expressions such as: always, often, usually, never, when I was a
child, when I was younger, etc.
Examples:
•I studied French when I was a child.
•He played the violin.
•He didn't play the piano.
•Did you play a musical instrument when you were a kid?
•She worked at the movie theater after school.
•They never went to school, they always skipped class.

8. MATERIAL
USE 5 Past Facts or
Generalizations
The Simple Past can also be used to describe past facts or
generalizations which are no longer true. As in USE 4 above, this
use of the Simple Past is quite similar to the expression "used to."
Examples:
•She was shy as a child, but now she is very outgoing.
•He didn't like tomatoes before.
•Did you live in Texas when you were a kid?
•People paid much more to make cell phone calls in the past.

9. MATERIAL 2
The Past Simple is used for facts and events that existed in the
past.
For example:
- I played tennis with some guys from work yesterday.
- We stayed in Shanghai for five days.
Regular past simple verbs are formed by adding "-ed" to the
verb. For example:
- jump -> jumped: The dog jumped over the fence.
- walk -> walked: I walked 22 kilometers yesterday.
- work -> worked: We worked together as lawyers for 15 years.

10. Usage
The past simple is used for a completed action. For example:
- We watched a movie at the weekend.
- She arrived on Thursday.
A specific time must be given or implied. For example:
- I walked to work this morning. - A specific time is given.
- I walked to work. - A specific time is not given, but in
context we would understand what time is being referred to.
MATERIAL 2

11. MATERIAL 2
Negatives
Past simple negatives are made with did and not. Did is the past
form of the verb to do. Did and not are often contracted to didn't.
For example:
- I arrived in London on Monday. I didn't arrive on Sunday.
- They stayed at the Vivaldi Hotel. They didn't stay at the
Carlton Hotel.
Because "did" is a past form, the main verb doesn't change. For
example:
- We didn't live in Italy. Did is a past form so live is unchanged.
- We didn't lived in Italy. Incorrect

12. MATERIAL 2
Questions
Questions are made by putting did before the subject.
For example:
- You lived in Japan. Did you live in Japan?
- They stayed at the Vivaldi Hotel. Did they stay at the
Vivaldi Hotel?
Again the main verb doesn't change.
For example:
- You lived in Japan. Did you lived in Japan? Incorrect
- You lived in Japan. Did you live in Japan? Correct
