Write down for yourself:

Routine sentences from your life: ( in English)

- What do you do when you get up? And what do you do after?

- How do you prepare before you start your sport/hobby?

- What do you do right before you go to sleep?

Now add:

Look at my sentence:

1. I get up in the morning. I look at my phone.

2. I take a shower and then I make coffee. 

3. As soon as I get up in the morning, I look at my phone

4. After I take a shower, I make coffee

After/before/when/as soon as in your sentences. 

--> What do your sentences look like now? 

Let's make them PAST tense

Can you change your sentences so all verbs are in the past?

1. I get up in the morning. 

2. I look at my phone.

3. I take a shower

4. I make coffee. 

After/before/when/as soon as

1. I get up in the morning. I look at my phone.

I got up in the morning after I had looked on my phone

2. I take a shower and then I make coffee. 

As soon as I had taken a shower, I made coffee.

Now make yours perfect

Good luck!

In short: 

Past Simple vs Past perfect

Hetgeen als eerste gebeurd: had + voltooid deelwoord

Hetgeen daarna gebeurd: 2e rijtje/ed/didn't + hele ww
