This unit contained an overview of the Present tense/time. There are four different present tenses, namely: Present simple tense: its usages, routine actions, present stories and newspaper headlines etc. I have learnt about the three different forms, affirmative, negative(includes the auxiliary verb 'do' after the subject as well as the negation word, not)and question(uses the auxiliary verb as the question word). Then I looked at how to form the third person singular, which ends with 's' or 'es'. I can also now try a few new teaching ideas like, questionnaires and 'guess my profession'. Present continuous: Usages, actions in progress, back round events and to describe developing situations etc. The form would also contain- affirmative (subject + auxiliary verb 'be' + verb + ing) negative(including the negation word 'not') and question(Using the auxiliary verb as the question word). I also took note of the few non-progressive verbs like, love, believe and owe etc. Teaching ideas I could use would include 'developing situations', telling stories and 'actions in progress'. Present perfect tense: This tense relates the past to the present. To name one usage, something that began in the past and that is still true now. Also, past actions with present results. The forms would again be affirmative(subject + auxiliary verb 'have' + past participe), negative( including the negation word 'not') and the question form(having the auxiliary verb as the question word. I have taken note of the difference in the 4 important words often used in this tense, which is since(point of time), for(period of time), gone and been. Activities I could do in this tense would be: role play and 'what have you done today?' Present perfect continuous tense: This tense relates past activities to the present. There are two usages here, namely, 'incomplete and ongoing act and when you want to say how long it has continued for' and a recently finished, uninterrupted act, which has present results'. The forms dont quite differ from the rest as there are also affirmative(subject + auxiliary verb 'have' + been + verb + ing), negative( also including the negation word 'not' after the auxiliary verb) and the question from(having the auxiliary verb as the question word again. Activities that could be done here, includes, students surveying the class to find out who has been doing something the longest.
