DEAR DIARY. GOOD AND BAD DAYS

Dear Diary

Writing about their day is a good way to practice the written form of the simple past. Write about what you did yesterday . Pay attention to transitions of time (next, then, after that, finally, etc.).

Good and Bad Days

Wat makes a day great?

Make a list for what makes a day bad. In pairs ask each other questions and give answers about a day in the past. For example, one student might ask, “Did you spill your coffee yesterday?” The other would answer, “No, I didn’t spill my coffee yesterday.”
