past simple vs past continous

Les doel

Je weet wat de past continuous is, hoe je deze maakt en toepast.

Hoe vorm je de past continuous?

- de verleden tijd van to be : was/were + ww+-ing
I was doing
you were doing
he/she/it was doing
we were doing
you were doing
they were doing

The past continous 

Je gebruikt de 'past continuous' als je wilt zeggen dat iets aan de gang was in de verleden tijd (vandaar 'continuous')

1.  Miss Snijders was driving to Rijssen, when snow started to fall. 

2.  The students of K2 were writing down notes during English class.  

Hoe vorm je de past continuous?

Na was/were krijgt het werkwoord daarna + ing.
I was working
You were drinking
He was reading
We were watching

Past Continuous

Past tense of the verb 'to be' and verb + ing

I was playing

You were playing

He was playing

We were playing

You were playing

They were playing

wanneer gebruik je de past continuous?

1. als iets aan de gang is
2. als iets gister is gebeurd
3. als iets aan de gang was
4. als je wil zeggen wat je doet

Wat is de correcte past continuous voor in deze zin:

1. trying

Past Continous vs. Past Simple

Past Continuous = aan de gang in het verleden (waren aan het..., zaten te...)

Past Simple = iets gebeurde op een bepaald moment in het verleden

PAST CONTINUOUS & PAST SIMPLE

Als ze samen in een zin staan dan:
