Hello everyone! How are you?

Tomorrow it's a bank holiday, so today, it's the last day of class for this week!

Open your pupil's book, we are going to skip a page :-)

Go to page 48. Listen:

Be careful! This text is in the past. Este texto está en pasado.

Para poner un verbo regular en pasado, simplemente tenemos que añadirle -ed al final. En este texto salen varios ejemplos:

wanted: queríamos, es el pasado de want, querer.
walked: caminábamos o caminamos, el pasado de walk, caminar.
talked: hablábamos, pasado de talk, hablar.
played: jugábamos, jugamos, pasado de play, jugar.
listened: escuchábamos o escuchamos, pasado de listen, escuchar.
looked: mirábamos o miramos, pasado de look, mirar.
watched: vimos, pasado de watch, ver.
laughed: reímos, pasado de laugh, reír. 
stayed: permanecimos, estuvimos, pasado de stay, permanecer.

Bien, hasta aquí, ¿lo entiendes? El problema es que algunos verbos, son irregulares, es decir, el pasado no se forma añadiendo -ed, se forma de una manera, digamos, irregular, no hay una norma... Te enseño alguno. Hay que ir los aprendiendo, pero calma, no tengas prisa, los irás aprendiendo.

El pasado de go (ir) es went. Por ejemplo, I went lo Loch Ness (Yo fui al Lago Ness)
El pasado de have (tener) es had. We had a picnic (Tuvimos un picnic).

Ahora te voy a explicar cómo se hacen las oraciones negativas e interrogativas. Para que te hagas una idea, es igual que en presente, pero cambiando el auxiliar Do o Does por Did. Pongo un ejemplo del presente, y luego te explico el pasado.

Present

Affirmative:  You play basketball.

Negative:  You don't play basketball.

Interrogative: Do you play basketball?

En la tercera persona, acuérdate, se añade -s al verbo y se cambia el auxiliar

Affirmative:  He plays basketball.

Negative:  He doesn't play basketball.

Interrogative: Does he play basketball?

Vale, vamos con el pasado

Past

Affirmative:  You played basketball.

Negative:  You didn't play basketball.

Interrogative: Did you play basketball?

En el pasado, a la tercera persona NO se le añade -s, y el auxiliar no cambia, sigue siendo did.

Affirmative:  He played basketball.

Negative:  He didn't play basketball.

Interrogative: Did he play basketball?

¿Qué te parece? Si lo has entendido todo, enhorabuena!! 

Si has entendido más o menos, pero tienes dudas, enhorabuena, porque esto es complicado y sé que te has esforzado, solo estamos empezando, la semana que viene lo volveré a explicar otra vez. 

Y si no has entendido nada, enhorabuena, porque has llegado hasta aquí, y eso significa que te has esforzado mucho, no te preocupes, porque la semana que viene lo explicaré otra vez y lo entenderás seguro!

REMEMBER

Now, you are going to practice a little bit. Open your activity book, page 47. Exercise 10, read and complete with verbs in the past.

That's all for today!

During the long weekend, you will find news on David's corner!! Be aware!!

* durante el fin de semana también colgaré correcciones y soluciones a los ejercicios.
