Past Simple Tense

Can you spot the difference between what happened yesterday and what usually happens? We use the past simple to talk about things, our adventures, surprises, and everyday moments, that happened before now—yesterday, last week, or even five minutes ago!

I danced in the rain.

Yesterday, she met a talking parrot.

He didn't bring his homework.

We didn't eat a snack.

Did you visit the museum?

Did you see the rainbow after school?

Regular verbs often end in -ed, but watch out for those irregular ones!

Write 3-5 sentences about your weekend using past simple verbs. How did you feel? (e.g. I baked a cake and danced to my favourite song. It was amazing!)

In case you missed these quizzes last year, here they are again =)

EDL

It's the European Day of Languages today! 

On 26 September, people across Europe celebrate the beauty and power of languages. This day promotes the importance of language learning and protecting our shared linguistic heritage.

This year marks the 25th anniversary of the EDL, and you're invited to take part in several creative international competitions.

• Poster Challenge: Illustrate the motto “Languages open hearts and minds!” Show how language learning engages both emotion and intellect. Use symbols, quotes, and artwork to express how languages connect people, boost brain power, and foster empathy across cultures.
• Multilingual Anthem: Help create and perform a multilingual anthem that celebrates linguistic diversity. 
• T-Shirt Design: Submit your design for the official EDL T-shirt! Your artwork could be worn across Europe to promote language learning.

Why It Matters

Languages help us:

• Connect across cultures
• Express ideas and emotions
• Unlock future opportunities
• Strengthen respect for different ways of life

So go ahead—share how languages make you feel.

All About ... My Best Friend

How many real friends have you got?
What makes a good friend?
Who is your best friend?

Now it’s your turn to write about someone who means a lot to you. Use the questions below to help you organise your ideas. Your writing should be between 80–100 words.

Organise your writing into 4 short paragraphs:

Paragraph 1: What is your friend’s name? Has he/she got a nickname? How and when did you two meet? Was it at school, on holiday, or somewhere unexpected?

Paragraph 2: What does your friend look like? How old is he/she? How tall is he/she? What can you say about his/her hair, eyes, and style?

Paragraph 3: What is your friend like? Don’t just list good and bad sides—give examples! Is he/she helpful, funny, honest, or sometimes impatient?

Paragraph 4: Why is your friend special to you? What do you enjoy doing together? Is there a moment you’ll never forget?

Tip: Use adjectives and expressions from our “Friends” lesson to describe appearance, personality, and behaviour. Try to include at least one sentence with:

• What does he/she like?
• What does he/she look like?
• What is he/she like?

Let’s celebrate the people who make us smile, support us when we’re down, and help us grow. Because real friends are treasures—and describing them helps us see just how lucky we are.
