A simple way to teach it

Before the lesson

Give learners page 1 and keep the page 2 answer key separate. Its question forms are targets; personal answers are models, not required wording.

  1. Notice did you use to in the after-school example and used to in its answer.
  2. Complete A about childhood homes, games, disliked foods and the town's earlier character; add a present-day contrast.
  3. Reorder B's school travel, television and companions questions, then interview a partner about a changed habit.

Support and extension

After did or did not, use use to without the final -d. Distinguish repeated habits or states from a single event; invented childhood details are acceptable.

Suggested approach. Adjust the pace and number of questions to suit your class.
