Suffix *ing= sufijo “ando, endo” in Spanish *irregular verbs: I spoke (speak – spoke – spoken)
*regular verbs: verb + ed: I worked
We use the Past Progressive Tense to talk about actions happening at a specific time in the
past:
For example: I was waiting for the bus at 4 p.m. this afternoon.
We use the Simple past to express an action which began and finished in the past. We use the
regular and irregular verbs:
For example: Yesterday, it rained all morning. It stopped at lunchtime.
When / while:
We can connect the short and longer actions with when and while.
WHEN can come before the shorter action in the simple past or longer action in the past
progressive:
For example: Sarah was climbing when she fell.
When Sarah was climbing, she fell.
WHILE must always come before the longer actions which happen at the same time in the
past progressive:
For example: Dad arrived home while we were playing.
while we were making pizza, Steve went to buy.
LET’S DO IT!!!
