This document provides instructions on how to form sentences in the past tense in English. It explains that the past simple is formed using "did" plus the base verb form, and lists examples of affirmative, negative, short negative, and interrogative past tense sentences. It then provides an exercise for students to practice forming positive, negative, and interrogative past tense sentences using example verbs.

2. Past tense
• We make the past simple just
like the present simple except
we use 'did' instead of 'do /
does'. It's really easy because
'did' doesn't change, even with
'he / she / it'.

3. Affirmative with Other Verbs
I walked (regular)
you played (regular)
he cooked (regular)
she listened (regular)
it rained (regular)
we ate (irregular)
they drank (irregular)

4. Negative Negative Short Form
I did not walk I didn't walk
you did not play you didn't play

5. Questions
did I walk?
did you play?
