Same video with Precise Subtitles

Teachers:

A "grammatical video" featuring 16 people using the past simple forms includes the use of ago.

I have provided this concise explanation for students:
The Past Simple (also called the Simple Past) is used for actions that happened at a specific time, illustrated by a time phrase such as yesterday, last year, etc., or simply understood from the context.
Regular Verbs add "ed" to the base form, or "d" if the verbs ends with "e".
Irregular verbs can change in many different ways. The verb form is the same for all persons: I went, you went, she/he/it went, we went, they went.

This was one of the easy videos. We only had to interview 55 people to have enough good material to make this edit, probably because the question is simple and straightforward, and the interviewees could hardly avoid using the past tense in their answers.

Imagine you are a five-year-old girl, and your father asks you about your day. What activities do little children (in this case, a little girl) do during the day at that age?

" keep an eye on" = watch carefully
" Be sure to keep an eye on the kids so they don't get too close to the river."

" homesick" = sad at being away from home or things that are familiar
" My roommate is really homesick and can't think about anything else but his mom's cooking."

A. Listen to the recording and answer the questions.

Do the vocabulary quizzes with the words from the conversation for more practice:

Talk about your family with a partner using some of these questions:

How many people are in your family?

What do your parents do?

What kinds of activities does your family do together?

What is one thing you like or dislike about your family?

Choose a country you want to visit. Use the internet and find three favorite games that children play there. Answer these questions:

1. What is the name of the game?

2. Do you play this game inside or outside?

3. What are some basic rules of the game?

4. How many people can play at one time?

5. How do you win?

Past Tense - Grammar Notes

Point 1: We use the simple past to talk about completed events.

Point 2: Affirmative sentences use the past tense form of the verb, which often is an -ed ending.

Point 4: Many verbs have an irregular form that is not an -ed ending, but rather a special spelling.

1. I met Joe last night. (meet)

2. We had dinner at the new cafe. (have)

3. We ate their pasta. (eat)

4. Later, we saw a movie. (see)

5. It made me cry! (make)

6. He bought dinner, so I paid for the movie. (buy/pay)

Point 4: For WH questions, use did after the question word.

What did you do on the weekend?

I stayed home and studied.

Where did Roy go on the weekend?

He went to Devon.

Who did you meet?

I met Susan.

Point 5: For Yes / No questions, we use did to start the question, and did in short answers.

Point 6: For negative statements, just add did not or didn't before the base verb.

1. I did not have time to go to the party.

2. I didn't have time to go to the party.

3. She did not like her dinner.

4. She didn't like her dinner.

5. The trains did not leave on time.

Every country must provide free healthcare to its citizens. I can't understand why the richest countries in the world don't do this. It's shocking that a country can be so rich and let its people die because they cannot pay the hospital. I saw a great movie once on America's healthcare system. It's called "Sicko," directed by Michael Moore. He went to England and France and was amazed that people in those countries didn't have to pay when they went to hospital. He then went to Cuba. He went with lots of Americans who couldn't afford healthcare in America. Amazingly, the Cuban hospitals treated them all for free and gave them medicine. They were so happy. I'm sure there's enough money in the world to provide everyone with free healthcare.
