 Please note this chart should be used as a guidance tool or as a reference. IT DOESN’T REPLACE THE PROGRESSION OF LEARNING.  Second cycle should also teach tenses versus each other. E.g. Simple Past versus Past Progressive.  Progressive tense may also be called Continuous.  Number of words for written production varies according to work demanded. E.g. A poster versus a text.
