This diagnostic test is designed to check students' knowledge of the Past Simple tense in English, specifically focusing on the use of the verbs "was," "were," "wasn't," and "weren't." The tasks will help assess students' understanding of these grammatical structures and their ability to use these forms of the verb "to be" in various contexts.
The test includes the following types of tasks:
- Read and write: Filling in the blanks in sentences with the correct forms of the verb "to be" (was, were, wasn't, weren't).
- Look and match: Matching questions with answers that contain past forms of the verb "to be."
- Listen and circle: Choosing the correct option based on listening (this assumes audio accompaniment for this task on the platform).
- Put in the correct order: Arranging jumbled words to form correct sentences, practicing word order in questions and statements with "was" and "were."
The tasks cover vocabulary related to places (e.g., playground, zoo, cinema, home, park, farm, bookshop), past events, and descriptions (e.g., funny, interesting, boring, noisy, delicious). This test will help identify the students' level of comprehension and pinpoint areas that may require further review.
