This document outlines the agenda for a grammar lesson, including reviewing participles and the habitual past versus simple past tenses. Students will practice identifying these verb tenses in exercises and videos about the US Civil Rights Movement. They will then write a paragraph using these tenses to describe the Civil Rights Movement, circling simple past tense verbs and underlining habitual past verbs. For homework, students have a test on Tuesday and can optionally complete writing the practice paragraph.
