Welcome!

Bags on the rack with your laptops too :)

Need: SB + paper notebook

Look at the picture and tell each other how you're doing/feeling.

Discuss your experience with these sports:

Have you ever tried yoga?

Have you played basketball since you were a child?

Have you cycled this week yet? How much?

What's a sport you have never done?

What's the sport you have done for the longest time?

- I can recognise the present perfect.

- I can use the present perfect to talk about sports.

4.2 Present Perfect

Present Perfect: have/has verb+ed or past participle (3rd irr.v.)

• An action/event that started in the past and is relevant in the present -> She hasn't eaten all day. (= She's hungry now...:()

• Situations that started in the past and continue up to now
  -> They have taught at this school for 5 years now.

• Life experiences -> Have you ever broken a bone?

past simple

= talk about finished actions in the past. You usually say when they happened --> Last weekend I went to Amsterdam. She ate a sandwich yesterday. He slept until 12pm.

NL

Je gebruikt de present perfect om aan te geven dat iets in het verleden is begonnen en dat het nu nog steeds van toepassing is / en nog steeds bezig is / levenservaringen

Practice together

have/has verb+ed or past participle (3rd irr.v.)

have/has verb+ed or 3rd irr. verb + time expressions: 

for, yet, never, ever, just, already, always, and since 

                       = FYNE JAAS

Another term has just started at the Sports School.

Have you ever played baseball? 

She has lived on her own since 2019.

         = usually does not matter when exactly it happened

Think about the answer:
That's the worst game I ... ever ...(zien)
in my life!

4.2 Present Perfect

• Since = show the exact point in time when it started = gebruik je vanaf een specifiek punt: ​ 9 o’clock, last Monday, 1st of January​, 2023
•                                          I have had my laptop since 2020.
• For = to show duration of a period of time = gebruik je bij een periode:​ Two weeks, five minutes, 6 years​
•                                          I have had my laptop for 3 years.
• To create a question: use HOW LONG + have + past participle (verbED / 3rd column) = For how long have you had your laptop?

Think about the answer:
They ...... (verloren) that championship
..... 3 years in a row.

4.2 Present Perfect

with JUST (= net): Emily has (Emily's) just scored. 

with ALREADY (= al): Serena has already retired.

with (N)EVER (= (n)ooit): I have never played baseball.

with ALWAYS (= altijd): They have always done well.

= is written in the middle of the Present Perfect!

with YET (= nog): We haven't played against that team yet. 

= is written at the end of the sentence!
