A simple way to teach it
Before the lesson
Use learner pages 1–2; keep the answer key on page 3 separate until feedback.
- Read the neighbourhood and shop exchange, identifying lengths of time and starting points.
- Complete the home, dog, work and friendship items; rewrite continuing situations and ask How long questions.
- Write about situations that continue now, then ask How long? followed by When did ... start?
Support and extension
Have lived/have been living and worked/have been working alternatives can fit. Know and possession have normally remain simple; for can also accompany a finished past period.
Suggested approach. Adjust the pace and number of questions to suit your class.
