 Here's another teaching idea for the present perfect tense. If you'll remember, the present perfect tense can be used to talk about present results of past actions. Oftentimes, these will be changes. In this picture here, you'll see that there have been many changes made in picture B versus picture A. You can tell your students that in this picture it's nine o'clock, yet in this picture it's ten o'clock. Now, we'll ask our students to make sentences based upon the changes that have been made. Here, as a prompt, the students have been asked to make sentences using these words. The teacher will give the students a time limit in order to make those sentences, and of course ask for feedback at the end. Here, we can see that possible sentences would be, He's done the ironing. He's hung up the towel. And now, this is just one idea using this particular picture. After starting with the basics, we could ask our students to do something a bit more complicated, such as perhaps even bringing in a picture of themselves from years past. You could make sentences based upon the changes that have happened in the appearance of the student. You could also talk about changes within the local town, or even perhaps within the country.
