We also learn that to form the past simple of a regular verb you add "ed" to the end of the verb. Play becomes played, cheer becomes cheered, and so on.
Also:
tidy-tidied
clap-clapped
Time markers like "last week", "last night", "yesterday", and "two weeks ago" show us that we are talking about something in the past. These words can go at the beginning or the end of sentences.
examples:
We had a concert last week.
Two weeks ago they had a party.
