THE PAST PERFECT TENSE: Introduction.



Hello everyone! Today's layout will deal with the PAST PERFECT TENSE, which is mainly used in narrative English. We use the past perfect most often when we are telling our parents about the school day or when we are just narrating events in the logical order they happened. So this tense is going to be key to speaking English naturally and understandably.

The past perfect tense is mainly used to express actions completed before other actions in the past. Let's practice this tense if you want to tell others about almost everything you have done recently. Here, you will find several videos with explanations and examples to better use THE PAST PERFECT TENSE. Keep on enjoying learning English with INGLES2TAKEAWAY.

The Very Hungry Caterpillar: Story time




Nature is mysterious and magical. It's impossible not to be mesmerized by its diversity and the fantastic ways it enhances wildlife on our planet. Nature itself is caretaking and jealous of the flora and fauna that sparkle in the universe.

Today, we'll be working on this beautiful story: The Very Hungry Caterpillar, designed, illustrated, and written by Eric Carle. Storytelling has been, for centuries, the most effective introduction for children to appreciate reading and books. Most of our grandparents and parents, aunts and uncles, brothers and sisters, teachers and friends were our first storytellers. Let's enjoy this story by watching the following animated film.

The Fascinating History of Cemeteries: HALLOWEEN

 


Hi guys! HALLOWEEN is definitely one of the most followed celebrations in English-speaking countries as well as worldwide. Once you start studying English as a foreign language, you are introduced to this unique celebration to get to know the culture and traditions. 

Many claim, using misleading information, that Halloween is about "witchcraft", "dark," and "evil," sickening and influencing kids negatively. However, this celebration is more about laughing at DEATH and SPOOKY things than the three devilish adjectives used above. Celebrating Halloween can be a great opportunity to teach historical events which may enrich students' general knowledge and cultural background. 

Today, we will be learning about THE FASCINATING HISTORY OF CEMENTERIES. This video lesson will introduce you all to one of the least-spoken topics we are allowed to talk about at home or in some cultures. Let's make this celebration a new pretext to learn because KNOWLEDGE is as light as feathers to be carried in our wisdom backpacks.

Watch and enjoy the knowledge.

I hope this exercise of
thinking and discussing is good enough
to widen your general knowledge and ENGLISH. 
Next time, more. 
See y'all in class! 
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
