SIMPLE PAST TENSE We use the Simple Past tense to talk about : - completed : (in the past) actions Habits Facts Past tense Now Future

Completed action I went to the cinema yesterday . GO = went (irregular verb)

Habits in the past tense I always visited my grandparents in holidays when I was a little girl Visit=visit ed

Facts in the past I lived in Tumbes three years ago

Past continuous tense (past progressive) The past continuous is used to express: Interrupted actions Parallel actions Continuous actions in the past

Interrupted actions We were watching TV when the phone rang (verb to be in the past tense ) Verb ring = rang (past tense)

Parallel actions in the past He was doing his homework while his mother was cooking dinner

Continuous actions in the past Last night at 7pm Sheyla was teaching to her students from Ayacucho.
