7 What tense is this written in? Miss Thomas is happy today. She skips around the classroom. She plays the ukulele and speaks in a bright, upbeat voice. Change the verbs to past tense.

8 We are going to learn about three types of tense: simple, perfect and progressive. Miss Thomas is happy today. She skips around the classroom. She plays the ukulele and speaks in a bright, upbeat voice. This is written in simple present. There is only one verb.

9 The present perfect tense uses the auxiliary verb ‘has’ or ‘have’. SimplePerfect I playI have played He playsHe has played Bob speaksBob has spoken They runThey have run

10 The present progressive tense uses the auxiliary verb ‘is’ ‘am’ or ‘are’ and ends in ing. It is a continuous action. SimplePerfectProgressive I playI have playedI am playing He playsHe has playedHe is playing Bob speaksBob has spokenBob is speaking They runThey have runThey are running

11 Like the simple present, the simple past only uses one verb. Miss Thomas was happy today. She skipped around the classroom. She played the ukulele and spoke in a bright, upbeat voice.

12 The past perfect tense uses the auxiliary verb had. SimplePerfect I playedI had played He playedHe had played Bob spokeBob had spoken They ranThey had run It means it happened before something else happened, e.g. I had eaten before I went (simple past) swimming.

13 The past progressive tense uses the auxiliary verb ‘was’ or ‘were’ and ends in ing. It is a continuous action. SimplePerfectProgressive I playedI had playedI was playing He playedHe had playedHe was playing Bob spokeBob had spokenBob was speaking They ranThey had runThey were running

14 Allow us all to blow your senses With Simple, Perfect and Progressive tenses There’s just one word in the simple present He plays, he runs, he speaks (how pleasant) Present perfect uses have or has He has run, he has spoken, he has played (some jazz) With present progressive it’s ‘is’ then i-n-g He is running, he is speaking he is playing happily Simple past is just one word He played, he ran, he spoke, he heard Past perfect means it happened before Uses had: he had run, he had spoken and more Past progressive (i-n-g) says the action keeps going Uses was: he was running, he was playing, he was knowing So now you all can be impressive, With simple, perfect and progressive!

15 The Subjunctive The subjunctive is not a tense, but a ‘mood’. In English we only have a few rare occasions when we need to use it: 1.When we’re talking about something hypothetical (including a wish): o If I were a boy o I wish I were a rock star o If she were to work harder, she would succeed. TIP: Look out for the words if or wish – then you know you need to use the subjunctive!

16 The Subjunctive 2. The ‘bossy’ or mandatory subjunctive: o We require that he return the money. o The Prime Minister expects that each teacher work hard. o It is required that each child sit a SATs paper. o I demand that the cat be returned to its owner. o I suggest that he study. This is often for formal occasions.

17 The Subjunctive 3. The formulaic subjunctive (for set phrases): o Long live the Queen! o God save the Queen! o Heaven help us. o Heaven forbid. o Be that as it may. o God bless you. It conveys the meaning of ‘let’ or ‘may’.
