Kavi's Term 1 Show-What-You-Know Day

"It's your Term 1 Check, clever writer — not a scary test, a day to shine! ⭐" says Kavi the owl. "This term you learned to turn a sentence from active to passive — Maya kicked the ball → the ball was kicked; you used the past perfect — I had left before it rained; you joined ideas with relative clauses (who, which, that) and cohesive devices (however, therefore); you felt the connotation of a word; and you read a text for its purpose and effect. Let's put it all together today!"

A peek inside

Put go into the past perfect to show it happened first: By the time we arrived, they ___ home.
past perfect = had + past participle · go → gone · their leaving happened BEFORE we arrived

Try this at home: Make the past perfect: 'The film ___ (start) before we sat down.'
