Past Simple Practice Sheet
This worksheet is VERY similar to the simple PRESENT worksheet I posted yesterday. I liked the format so I converted it to a simple PAST worksheet as well. It is a basic sheet you can use to help students practice formulating simple sentences in the simple past form. Hope it�s useful --Douglas
