TEACHING NOTES

Using Pictures of English Tenses Level 2

Photocopy Side A of the page to provide oral practice in the target structure,

and Side B to provide written follow up.

The Teaching Notes on the following pages give you prompt questions to

generate the correct structure for each tense, and also example conversations

and answers.

Pictures of English Tenses Level 2 extends the idea of linking tenses with a

colour. These were introduced in Level 1 as:

Present Simple (Dark Blue) Present Continuous (Light Blue)

Past Simple (Brown)

Future (Yellow)

In Level 2 we add

Present Perfect (Green)

Passives (Orange)

Past Continuous (Light Brown)

Use these colours consistently so students quickly become familiar with them.

The names of the characters in the picture drills, reinforce this association.

Students now have a “right hemisphere”, colour based, visual system for

identifying tenses. It is easy to make a ‘colour choice’ between, say, Present

Perfect and Past. Is it Green or Brown?

The teacher can correct by simply holding up the appropriate coloured pen –

and the colour prompts the student into self-correction.

I’m painting

my cat at the

moment.
