Week 10 IT37 This teacher led activity aims to teach past tense singular and plural questions and answers in the affirmative or negative. The child’s task is to choose the tense, and the affirmative or negative response in the singular or plural. Children should write in their choice of sentence on the answer sheet after each slide is shown. There may be more than one correct answer for the negative. The teacher should write the children’s correct responses on the board and discuss. The next slide is an answer sheet for each child to complete during the IT presentation, and should be printed, and distributed to the children before you start. Discussion of their reasons for their choice should take place with the teacher when they receive correct feedback on the screen.
