Tell the child that he will use the second form of the verb to tell his past events. The child is unfamiliar with the other forms of the verb. So give him about 30 forms by yourself so that he can do lecture number 20 of my course easily. In the first step, ask the child to look at the activity given in Lecture No. 19, which I wrote as a daily routine, and move it into the past. Then ask the questions below for good practice.
– How did you spend your last day?
– How did you spend your last Eid?
– How did you celebrate your birthday?
